Abstract:
Most of the previously designed moon rovers possess a single locomotion system which limits lunar surveillance to a solitary location at a particular instance of time. The failure or malfunctioning of the locomotion system stalls the entire process of exploration. Furthermore, the uncertainties of the surface to be explored pose the threat of entrapping the rover in the lunar terrain which might result in aborting the exploration. The following design proposes a Reconfigurable Moon Exploration system (REMEX) which could be adapted according to the operational demands. The system consists of two individual Moon rovers which are capable of independent as well as inter-networked exploration. The scientific equipments required to perform other experiments form a separate unit which is mounted on the rovers. In this mode, the rovers function as locomotive units to transport the payload. This design attempts parallel exploration of the lunar surface, provides a standby rover, which can also be used as a 'pilot rover'.
