For several sweltering weeks along the North Carolina coastline, an ERDC teampushed a quadruped robot with a suite of advanced sensors to its limit to test its ability to conduct critical beach landscape surveys. The research – known as the SandHound Project – is working to validate whether the quadruped can operate at all levels…

The lessons learned from the ongoing SandHound Project research may soon provide a new “best friend” for coastal engineers, emergency response teams and military planners. During the weeks of testing, the quadruped robot – named “Snoop” – deployed a suite of advanced sensors that helped it navigate the beach environment and collect coastal landscape data….
