Canonical robot record
Overview
Dingo is a lightweight, compact indoor mobile robot from Clearpath Robotics aimed at robotics researchers and educators. It is built to be a versatile, easy-to-deploy base platform for indoor autonomy work such as navigation, mapping, and mobile manipulation.
The platform is offered in two drive configurations: Dingo-D with differential drive and Dingo-O with omnidirectional drive, letting users pick the motion model that best fits their application. Both variants ship with the open-source Robot Operating System (ROS) preconfigured, along with a simulation model, so teams can get started quickly using widely available ROS libraries.
Dingo's modular design lets it be customized and tailored to a specific application, and it integrates with an extensive range of third-party sensors and accessories including lidars, cameras, and manipulators.
RoboZaps maintains this record as part of its canonical robotics database. Specs are source-verified where linked; the record compares public facts across manufacturers rather than representing a single robot maker.

Record changelog
- Weight: 18 kg changed to 9.1 kg (Dingo-D 1.0; Dingo-O 1.0 is 13 kg) · Jul 9, 2026
tranche-7 verification (corrected): Datasheet: Dingo-D 9.1 kg (20 lbs). Stored 18 kg matches no Dingo 1.0 config — closest are Dingo-O 1.5 (17.5 kg) or Jackal (17 kg): the Jackal/Husky/Dingo bleed pat
- Communication: WiFi, Ethernet changed to Ethernet, USB 3.0, RS 232 · Jul 9, 2026
tranche-7 verification (corrected): Datasheet COMMUNICATION row: 'Ethernet, USB 3.0, RS 232'. WiFi comes only from an optional computing module, not the base platform.
- Height: 260 mm changed to 110 mm (Dingo-D chassis; Dingo-O is 114 mm) · Jul 9, 2026
tranche-7 verification (corrected): Datasheet: Dingo-D external dimensions 551×517×110 mm. Stored 260 mm matches no Dingo figure; core height_mm 110 was already right.
