Basa iri rakaitwa pasi pechirongwa chitsva chekuvandudza matekinoroji cheGround X-Vehicle Technologies (GXV-T) chirongwa, chichitsigirwa neUS Armed Forces. Kunyanya, kana uchigadzira vhiri idzva rinokwanisa kuzvishandura kuita gonye… uye zvakasiyana.
Inonzi "Reconfigurable Wheel-Track" (RWT), kana, mushanduro yemahara, "Configurable Wheel-Track", vhiri iri rekufungidzira rinotsvaga kusanganisa zvakanakira mavhiri akatenderera, kureva, pakumhanya kwakanyanya, nekugona kwekunze kunovimbiswa nemakwara. — kureva, kuburikidza nekugona kushandura, mumasekonzi maviri, chimiro chakatenderera kuita vhiri retatu. Izvi, nemotokari iri kufamba!
Iyo RWT yakatanga kusikwa kweNational Center yeRobotic Engineering paCarnegie Mellon University, ine tekinoroji yekutanga application inotarisirwa kuve yechiuto. Sezvo mhinduro ichivimbisa, sekureva kwemauto, "kuvandudzwa kwekukurumidza mukufamba kwehunyanzvi uye kufambisa, munzvimbo dzakasiyana siyana".
"Kudzoreredza" kwevhiri ingori imwe yehunyanzvi hwekuita yakagadziridzwa pasi peiyi Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency, kana DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) chirongwa. Pakati pezvimwe pane mota yemagetsi yakabatanidzwa kune vhiri, yatove neyakasanganiswa kutapurirana, pamwe nekumisikidzwa kwema-multi-mode kune yakanyanyisa terrain.
Iyi kumiswa kutsva, yakagadziridzwa nekambani yePratt & Miller, inokwanisa kushanda yakazvimiririra, pavhiri, iine rwendo rusina kujairika, pamusoro pe1.8 m - 1066 mm kumusoro uye 762 mm pazasi. Faculty inonyanya kukosha, kureva, munzvimbo dzakashata, zvichibvumira kuchengetedza muviri wakagara wakatsetseka, kunyangwe uchityaira pamateru.
Tarisa vhidhiyo yakagadzirwa uye yakaburitswa neDARPA, inoburitsa izvi nehumwe matekinoroji… uye, nenzira, bata chirebvu chako!
