US Patent 9052165 Remotely operated robotic platform

A remotely operated robotic platform comprises a base module mechanically coupled to a first wheel and a second wheel. A first motor is electrically coupled to a first motor controller and mechanically coupled to a first wheel. A second motor is electrically coupled to a second motor controller and mechanically coupled to a second wheel in order to provide zero-radius turning. An array of batteries is electrically coupled to a distribution bar and further electrically coupled to the motor controllers in order to provide power to the motors. A canopy is mechanically coupled to the base module where the canopy further comprises a nose section mechanically coupled to a tail section where the nose section and the tail section comprise protective plates in order to allow the remotely operated robotic platform to deflect radar.
