Abstract

From the Introduction: "This report documents the progress of the NIAC project 'Microbots for Large-Scale Planetary Surface and Subsurface Exploration' for its first year September 2005 to September 2006). The Microbots discussed in this report are new robotic system design paradigm for the exploration of planets, moons and other bodies of the Solar System. The objective of these systems is to investigate extremely difficult terrain surface and subsurface areas such as caves and deep craters. Both of these important areas cannot be traverse by conventional rovers." Open Access See Extended description for more information.
