Analysis of Minibot deployment considerations and concepts. Updated 23 Jan 2011, Siri.
Scissors
- Initial concept for deploying the Minibot and applied to the V-bot.
- Assembled for testing only on 20-February. Manual deployment tests indicated that this deployment method would not be reliable. Additional issues with off-axis deployment of the one or two 3/4" bore, 5" stroke pneumatic cylinders were unresolved.
