Carnegie Mellon Robotics Club: Colony Scout Testing Phase 1

Just assembled the basic mechanical system of the Colony Scout for testing. This is a suite of tests without any odometry or data logging -- just power from a regulated DC supply. The main goal of these tests was to establish a baseline for slippage on different terrain at different inclines. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CMwTbWYLOg for more details on the platform.
