D-RATS Help Ready Robot Exploration

From the creator

Members of the NASA Kennedy Space Center D-RATS (Desert Research and Technology Studies) team are headed into the high Arizona desert to evaluate and test human-robotic exploration techniques. They'll carry specially-designed backpacks containing GPS antennas, communications components and cameras. The exercise helps evaluate operational exploration concepts for ground surface support that include rovers and extra vehicular activities.
