Rover
Rover project involves the design, development, installation and maintenance in the operational state of the autonomous technological wholes composed of a set of instruments and devices on mobile platforms. Resembling rovers sent to the moon and Mars.
Rover (s) will be set after completion of construction in a safe location, where the task will be to perform research of the country, the atmosphere, the celestial phenomena and other over several days or weeks without any physical contact with people and when to use this system for autonomous navigation or management system at a distance.
After a phase of testing in the office-laboratory, the rover (s) will be at various locations around the Croatian do a few missions,
One of the planned rover mission is designed to work with SIZE JOŽE lander project, jointly exploring the world around you for at least two weeks in a fully autonomous mode!
He has made several models of the rover ("educational toys") to the astronomical summer workshop Clarke. It is a remote-controlled devices that are more or less technically rebuilt. Depending on the configuration of these rovers are given different names. Basically it's about two rovers that are now raised to R-000 / A and R-000 / B. Currently not in operating condition. There are plans to equip them for further use as an educational model or test vehicles for specific hardware.
In addition to these rovers in 2009 and 2010. made a number of engineering-type model 001 All are fully prepared in the laboratory. Depending on the model of them have made various tests of mechanics, electronics, computers, communications, sensors and cameras.
All these models are now in a greater or lesser degree of technical completeness considering the individual items of equipment "borrowed" from one model to another depending on specific needs.
Astronomical Association Vidulini during November 2010. was entered in an international team SYNERGY MOON, which is part of Google LunarX Prize competes in the great challenge of the century, which aims to build a rocket that will reject the spacecraft to the moon. The same must be gently lowered to the lunar surface as it should go down to the rover, the basic predispositions for a prize of $ 30 million, must exceed 500m at the lunar surface and from there to send a picture of HD. After that point the original Rover project has changed in that now works for the SYNERGY MOON lunar rover. Engineering Model RM-001 will serve as a prototype of a real lunar rover and as a final product previously framed Rover project.
If necessary, rovers can also serve as a technology demonstrators for the event, conferences, competitions, etc.
This project has the working title "HISTROHOD".
