Team Mountaineers Space Robotic Challenge Phase-2 Qualification Round Preparation Report

Abstract

Team Mountaineers launched efforts on the NASA Space Robotics Challenge Phase-2 (SRC2). The challenge will be held on the lunar terrain with virtual robotic platforms to establish an in-situ resource utilization process. In this report, we provide an overview of a simulation environment, a virtual mobile robot, and a software architecture that was created by Team Mountaineers in order to prepare for the competition's qualification round before the competition environment was released.
