Hi ROS community! 👋

I‘m excited to share PIXKIT, a modular x-by-wire chassis designed for autonomous driving R&D. It’s built on Autoware, fully compatible with ROS2, and supports precise electronic control of steering, throttle, and braking.

If you’re looking for a ROS-friendly x-by-wire platform to speed up your AV development, feel free to reply or DM for more info!
