The R4 project has a cache of robots and sensors that can be loaned out to researches in the United States . These are truly fieldable equipment, as they serve double duty as the CRASAR response team cache! This allows researches outside of USF to work on "real" equipment. CRASAR works with the manufacturers to provide APIs, software development kits, and hardware/sensor interface specifications and mounting plates.
. A sample agreement for borrowing robots is here.
Inuktun VGTV-extreme
 |
Hardware: Inuktun VGTV-extreme series by American Standard Robotics. is a polymorphic robot, tethered, with color video and 2-2-way audio. All units have been modified to allow the insertion of sensor payloads- both to take power from robot and to transmit data. Software is developed through a laptop or computer connected through a serial interface. These can be sent as a system with field interface kits (backpack, camcorder, ruggedized laptop) or just the robot. The VGTV-
extreme
is also waterful and a small operator control unit.

Persuit Sensor
 |
The Pursuit sensor emits a special form of light which can be detected by a modified camera. This sensor does not pick up thermal images but is an active sensor causing the images to appear less fuzzy. |
