NASA has developed "toylike" autonomous robots to carry out scientific surveys of treacherous areas of the Arctic and Antarctic. The SnoMotes robots are designed to operate in terrain deemed too dangerous for scientists. The devices can record data including barometric pressure, temperature and relative humidity that will help scientists improve climate models. Ayanna Howard, an associate professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, worked with scientists at Pennsylvania State University to create the devices.
