Canyon Extraction Robot

Task

20100903090204azyZe.jpg

Your task is to design a system to be used during a canyon extraction.  In its use, your design may rescue injured or lost climbers, hikers, families, or animals.  Further, your design should be capable of deployment in an urban setting, or urban-wildnerness interface.  Once your robot reaches the appropriate distance from the beginning, it must deploy a rescue basket/claw/sled for a one-kilogram mass to be placed upon and extracted the one meter from the floor of the canyon.  Once the mass has been removed from the canyon, your design must successfully return the mass to the start, or continue to traverse the rope to the opposite side of the room.  However, this is not the end of your task.  You must also present a legitimate sales and marketing scheme for distributing your product to a particular customer group using the websites and local companies and organizations as support.  You may want to design a poster, a handout, or PowerPoint presentation for a meeting with a customer.   Additionally, a fully detailed electronic sketch using Google Sketch-up must be submitted along with technical descriptions of your product.
