I guess to add back to this post we ended up finding a solution pretty easily. We will end up using a single phase input to three phase output VFD for our 1.5kW Ac motor.
Why not use an existing unit? Donations for the most part. All of our parts have been without cost so far. And actually some of the reverse engineering was a little more complicated than just making your own simplified system. Seems like some of the oem options were made purposely more complex for people to work on for what i assume to be intellectual property protection.
We have a fantastic strategy so far. Can't share too many specifics but we will have multiple GPS inputs, collision avoidance sensors, and collision detection, and probably bumpers. lol
Full tilt we are looking at 2000W/h for the entire robot.
