DiffDrive-Mini — Differential-Drive Robot URDF
A clean, simulation-ready URDF for a compact differential-drive mobile robot. Includes base_link, two continuous-axis drive wheels, a spherical caster, and a top-mounted LiDAR link — each with mass and inertia tensors set for stable physics in Gazebo / Isaac Sim. Wheel separation 0.21 m, wheel radius 0.05 m, so it drops straight into a ros2_control diff_drive_controller or nav2 stack for SLAM and navigation experiments. Minimal, dependency-free, and easy to extend with cameras or arms.
