Rover V2

The new rover has been fully modeled in CAD, and the creature is taking shape. It will be a monster. Hopefully it will be as capable as it seems.

Wireless Emulation V2

The new emulation environment is in integration testing. It will offer full IQ emulation with support for MIMO, antenna patterns, different channel models, noise models, etc.
