About this technology
Overview
CADRE (Cooperative Autonomous Distributed Robotic Exploration) is a technology demonstration on its way to the moon via the Commercial Lunar Payload Service (CLPS) program in 2024. It will be a first of its kind demonstration of multi-agent autonomous rovers, featuring three fully autonomous, shoebox-sized rovers performing a distributed measurement of the lunar surface and sub-surface with stereo cameras and a ground-penetrating radar. In this talk, we will provide an overview of the technology demonstration, as well as, a closer look at how the rovers will work autonomously together to plan and execute a distributed measurement.
