How It Works

COMET-IV

-

The main difference in the COMET series is the use of legs over wheels or tracks. When put to use the complex mechanism shows greater balance over uneven terrain, but it lacks some of the faster speeds found in other demining robots. Moving like a gigantic metal spider, each of its legs hovers above the ground as it scans below. With a small percentage of its surface area touching the floor, accidental explosions are kept to a minimum.
