RDK Accessories Documentation

The RDK Accessories Documentation collects usage guides for hardware modules that ship with D-Robotics RDK developer kits, helping developers quickly complete product selection, installation, bring-up, and secondary development. Currently documented accessories include stereo camera modules (GS130W / GS130WI) and the IMU module, with more content such as camera expansion boards to be added in the future.

Documentation Structure

Each accessory document follows a unified chapter structure, making it easy to look up information by usage phase:

Accessory Overview

RDK Stereo Camera GS130W is a MIPI-based stereo depth camera featuring dual SC132GS global shutter sensors, an 80 mm baseline, single-channel resolution of 1280×1080, and up to 120 fps output. It is suited for robotics vision and machine vision inspection applications.

RDK Stereo Camera GS130WI builds on the GS130W with an integrated ICM-42688-P 6-axis IMU, a 70 mm baseline, and single-channel resolution of 1080×1280. It also supports HDR, high SNR, and near-infrared enhancement, making it suitable for applications that require synchronized vision and motion sensing.

RDK IMU Module uses the Bosch BMI088 6-axis IMU (3-axis accelerometer + 3-axis gyroscope), supports I2C/SPI communication, and includes onboard LED, buzzer, and DS18B20 temperature sensor. C / Python / ROS2 SDKs are provided, making it suitable for motion sensing in robotics, drones, and similar applications.
