Teleoperated Rover for the Standoff Ultracompact micro-Raman Spectroscopy Instrument

Recent developments on micro-Raman spectroscopy at NASA Langley Research Center has resulted in a instrument for future space missions. This instrument is capable of inspecting minerals and potentially biogenic materials on other planets. As this Raman instrument is designed to be a standoff, remote measuring system it is desirable to test remote data collection capabilities with a mobile robot. We developed a platform with base sensors to support the instrument and auxiliary hardware. We also developed software interfaces written to control the robot and display sensor data. We discuss our approach, system architecture, and implementation of the teleoperated rover, known as "The Snorkeling crocodilian".
