PROJECT INSIGNIA

Got a Space exploration trouble? Hold my Samples from MARS!

The problem PROJECT INSIGNIA solves

Deep Space exploration, Easier Maneuverability on unknown harsh terrains, efficiently compartmentalized sample storage, drill sample collection, remote control access, machine vision-enabled research, surface engineering problems on various planetary surfaces

Challenges we ran into

Panel design for safe-guarding the electrical system- finally, we decided to use surface lofts for compact packaging
Devising systems for transmission- we have gone ahead with the hub and motor battery powered system
Optimizing suspension design- final suspension is a 6 Link type damper with 4 trailing arms and 2 roll resisting links
End effector concept- the final idea was to reach even the most difficult areas, so we are using a drill house integrated with a Vaccum Pump
Concept design for the Ni-Ti alloy wheel- Using memory effect for wheels to create perfect traction

All the above are some hurdles we faced
