The mobile robotic system "MRS-А1" (MRS) is designed to perform remote combat engineering works using a mechanic arm and attachable equipment (payload modules), visual reconnaissance, monitoring of the environment to detect adverse factors and radio activity as well as explosive vapors, shifting cargo of various application.

The system is based on a small multi-function mobile platform on a crawler unit with extension flippers that enhance the MRS terrain performance. To perform assigned tasks the mobile platform can be equipped with a wide range of payloads and sensors that provide simple MRS control by the operator and better terrain navigation.

The MRS has a multi-functional multilevel mechanic arm (manipulator) that may perform precision transporting and primary inspection of suspicious items, or it can be used as a tool that increases the MRS off-road performance on rough terrain and when overcoming obstacles.

The MRS is controlled by an operator via the easy-to-handle ergonomic remotely control console. Two precision joysticks control the mechanical movements of the MRS.

The MRS power supply system ensures autonomous operation of the mobile platform and control unit for at least 4 hours if the ambient temperature is above zero. The batteries can be promptly changed in the field conditions.

Additional devices with RS485, Ethernet interfaces can be connected to the mobile platform to enhance the performances of the System
