Rovers within rovers: a hierarchical approach
SPIE Proceedings, 2006The Mars Exploration Rovers (MER) Sojourner in 1997, and Spirit and Opportunity in 2004, provide an example of how the selection of rover size impacts the nature of their respective mission objectives and capabilities. Smaller rovers tend to be more nimble and can more closely explore a complex environment, but at a cost of reduced capability.

2015 12th Latin American Robotics Symposium and 2015 3rd Brazilian Symposium on Robotics (LARS-SBR), 2015
The Mira rover was developed as a cooperation project between LabRom (EESC - USP) and Embrapa Instrumentacao. It used an embedded LIBS technology to analyze essential soil nutrient elements for precision agriculture applications, the knowledge of soil components is an important task to know the nutritional variability of the soil, which makes possible ...

Proceedings of the fifteenth ACM symposium on Operating systems principles - SOSP '95, 1995
The Rover toolkit combines relocatable dynamic objects and queued remote procedure calls to provide unique services for roving mobile applications. A relocatable dynamic object is an object with a well-defined interface that can be dynamically loaded into a client computer from a server computer (or vice versa) to reduce client-server communication ...

Proceedings of the 2019 on Creativity and Cognition, 2019
Rover is a mechatronic imaging device inserted into quotidian space, transforming the sights and sounds of the everyday through its peculiar modes of machine perception. Using computational light field photography and machine listening it creates a kind of cinema following the logic of dreams: suspended but mobile, familiar yet infinitely variable in ...

IEEE International Workshop on Intelligent Robots and Systems, Towards a New Frontier of Applications, 2002
The authors argue that small rovers on the order of 1 to 2 kg are suitable for planetary exploration. Not only are they extremely cost effective but they also enable a number of new possibilities for scientific objectives. The authors describe their Attila robots which are prototypes for planetary rovers at the larger end of the scale (1.6 kg).

Combining the forces, Rovers people, Rovers partners
IEE Colloquium on Transforming Your Material Flow: A Practical Insight into World Class Logistics and Supply Chain Management, 1996Viewing the changes which have taken place within Rover over the past decade, external bodies would probably focus on the “Jobs for Life” aspect of the New Deal announced in 1992. This commitment together with the move to all associates including the chairman wearing the corporate uniform, received extensive media coverage, some having it as a major ...

On the mobility of all‐terrain rovers
Industrial Robot: An International Journal, 2013PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to evaluate the locomotion performance of all‐terrain rovers employing rocker‐type suspension system.Design/methodology/approachIn this paper, a robot with advanced mobility features is presented and its locomotion performance is evaluated, following an analytical approach via extensive simulations.

Industrial Robot: An International Journal, 2004
Robotic exploration of the planet Mars is the goal of two space missions launched in 2003. Their aim was to use robots and a host of instrumentation to take samples of soil and rock and to analyse them for evidence of life. The NASA project, which landed on Mars in January 2004, has put the two wheeled rovers Spirit and Opportunity into operation ...
