The rover will be small and light-weight enough to be carried on weather balloons. Its design will allow it to traverse icy terrain and be resistant to wind gusts. It will generate its own power with solar panels and regulate internal temperature as it's first priority. The rover will be on a four-wheel drive platform, each wheel being on a controllable strut, allowing it to drive in any orientation and right itself should it flip over. <note>**The rover is back from Antarctica. This project has ended and these pages are now archived. **</note> * [[http://1519.octanis.org/rover/|Rover Website]] * [[http://1519.octanis.org/rover/2016/04/02/easter-balloon-launch.html|Balloon Launch]] ===== Pages ===== * [[orb:basestation|Mission Base Station]] * [[orb:c94-m8p|Introduction to C94-M8P]] * [[orb:config_fpspc|Field Station Operator : Installation Procedure]] * [[orb:contribute|How To Contribute To Octanis Rover/Balloon]] * [[orb:drive_tests|Octanis Rover Drive Tests]] * [[orb:electronics|Electronics]] * [[orb:easter_balloon|Easter Balloon]] * [[orb:lidar|LIDAR]] * [[orb:geiger|Geiger Counter]] * [[orb:eps|Electrical Power Subsystem (EPS)]] * [[https://olimex.wordpress.com/2016/12/02/a20-olinuxino-micro-works-hard-inside-open-source-rover-octanis-project-in-freezing-antarctica/|A20-OLinuXino-MICRO works hard inside Open Source Rover Octanis project in freezing Antarctica!]] * [[https://www.rock7.com/blog-full-post?id=42&title=Octanis+Rover+Mission|Rock Seven, Octanis Rover Mission]] ===== Systems ===== <html> <iframe src="//slides.com/bitmorse/octanis-1-rover-systems-graph/embed" width="100%" height="600" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe> </html> orb/overview.txt Last modified: 16 months agoby sam
