Some history of this project can be found here I worked on this project for 4 years while an undergraduate at MIT. I was involved with the overall chassis design/configuration, robot manipulators, camera pan & tilt, battery box, power system contactors, depolyment systems (cranes, lifting systems) and many other tasks over the years.
