Miniature, Remotely Controlled Land and Water Vehicles

Abstract

The report includes a technical assessment of selected vehicles and systems; a summary of the results of a conference on miniature, remotely controlled vehicles held at Battelle, and conclusions and recommendations with respect to miniature-vehicle technology. The objectives of the program were to conduct a survey of existing, developmental, and conceptual miniature, R/C land and water vehicles and their associated components, and to perform a technical assessment of the vehicles identified in the survey to assist interested agencies in determining which vehicles are potentially useful for their specific missions, and what actions might be necessary to modify an existing vehicle to perform as required.
