A UGV energy system must power mobility, control, communications, sensors and payload through a defined cycle with a controlled reserve. One range figure without configuration and conditions is misleading.
Mission context
Surface, speed, mass, temperature, stop time, sensors and data transmission all change demand. Charging and battery replacement logistics are part of the system.
Engineering approach
HARDY creates an energy budget for a known configuration, measures the actual cycle and retains protected reserve for return or safer stop.
What must be demonstrated
Energy claims need configuration context.
- power profile across operating modes;
- time or distance with a defined payload;
- temperature, degradation and charging or replacement procedure.
