The Cool Robot is a solar power, autonomous robot that was developed by a team of students at Dartmouth Thayer School in conjunction with Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL). In 2005 the Cool Robot was tested at Greenland Summit. The last two years have been spent in implementing the robot and redesigning its solar panel box. Now it is time to test Cool Robot and its improvement as it makes it way back to Greenland for its 2nd visit.

Day 11
All 5 boost converter have been installed and ready to run all 5 solar panels at once! Also the some parts of the drive code where changed, a longer front bumper was added, and a more ridged towing line was made for the GPR. The test will have wait until tomorrow as we are going to take it easy tonight, I believe a well deserved break from working very long days to get to this point!
