13. ABSTRACT (maximum 200 words)

The Naval Postgraduate School’s Small Robotic Technology (SMART) Initiative is an ongoing research

effort within the Combat Systems Science and Technology Curriculum that engages in forward-looking applications of small

robotic technology for military employment. The goal of the program is to develop a multipurpose robotic platform that is

capable of hosting varied sensor packages for military research. This thesis successfully modified a Foster Miller Lemming

tracked vehicle: Payload volume was increased to allow for ease of systems testing and access while incorporating a method

for deploying varied sensor modules on a towed sled. Original micro-controller hardware has been replaced with a COTS

system that allowed for simplified interfacing with a Honeywell digital compass and a Motorola G.P.S. card. Communications

with the Robot were provided through the Internet via a modem. A control interface for use on a personal computer was

implemented by creating a JAVA application; the control interface has also been converted to a JAVA applet that the Robot is

capable of downloading to a user via a web interface. Follow on research will fully integrate the Robot with a variety of sensor

packages including a synthetic array seismic sonar, visual and infrared devices and chemical detection devices.
