No — I couldn't find any educational robot kit in our catalog that runs more than 8 hours on battery. I filtered our Educational & Research Robot Kits group on battery runtime > 8 hours and got zero matches; the longest stated runtime anywhere in that group is 6 hours. For context, many kits in this group simply don't list a battery runtime figure at all, so I can only speak for the ones that do.
Since nothing meets your 8-hour requirement, here are the closest options, ranked by their stated battery runtime:
| Product | Manufacturer | Battery runtime | Jetson module |
|---|---|---|---|
| ROSbot XL (Jetson Orin Nano option) | Husarion | 6 h | Jetson Orin Nano (8GB RAM) |
| Jackal UGV (Jetson option) | Clearpath Robotics | 4 h | Jetson TX2, Nano, Xavier NX, Xavier AGX |
| myAGV 2023 Jetson Nano | Elephant Robotics | 3.02 h | Jetson Nano B01 4GB |
| Hiwonder ROSPug Quadruped Bionic Robot Dog | Hiwonder | 2 h | Jetson Nano |
| QBot Platform | Quanser | 2 h | Jetson Orin Nano |
A few notes on the top candidates:
- The ROSbot XL is a ROS 2-native indoor mobile robot platform for research with a 10 kg payload, 86 Wh battery, and USB-C Power Delivery input (12–20V) — the longest runtime in the group at 6 hours. husarion.comhusarion.com ↗“robot.battery_runtime_h=6 h”
- The Clearpath Jackal is a small, weatherproof (IP62) field robotics UGV with a 20 kg payload and GPS, supporting several Jetson module options, at 4 hours. clearpathr...clearpathrobotics.com ↗“robot.battery_runtime_h=4 h”
- The QBot Platform is an open-architecture differential-drive teaching robot with a 2D 360° lidar, Intel RealSense D435, and 84 Wh battery, at 2 hours. quanser.comquanser.com ↗“robot.battery_runtime_h=2 h”
To be clear: none of these meets your stated >8-hour requirement — they are the closest matches, all below it. If runtime is the hard constraint, you may want to consider kits that accept external battery packs (the ROSbot XL's USB-C Power Delivery input makes it well suited to that) or reach out to the manufacturers directly for extended-battery configurations.
