This paper provides an overview of a new manipulation system developed for sampling and instrument placement from small autonomous mobile robots for Mars exploration. Selected out of the design space, two manipulators have been constructed and integrated into the Rocky 7 Mars rover prototype. This paper describes objectives and constraints for these manipulators, and presents the finished system and some results from its operation.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a small rover for future Mars missions requiring long traverses and rover-based science experiments at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
