Vitalis: Exploration Robot Scratch Build (Part 1)

Build scale model mechs like this using kitbashing, scratchbuilding, and 3D printing services from PCBWay, which also offers PCB prototyping, CNC machining, and sheet metal fabrication: https://pcbway.com/g/45Mb35 == ROYAL ARCHIVE ENTRY == Purpose: Documentation of the creation of Vitalis (Part 1) Executive Summary: This entry contains the federal audits of Dr. Hawthorne, lead botanist of the Institute for Vegetative Yield (IVY), and their critical mission to address food scarcity across the Neo Cities within the Omniplex. These recordings have been deemed necessary by the Royal Archive on behalf of the Royal Technocratic Dominion due to IVY’s placement within the Omnitech Research Group (ORG). This first recording shows the creation of an exploration unit for use within the ruins of Neo City 0 with the intended goal of discovering viable plant life that can be cultivated into crops. Key Findings: The Vitalis robot is a durable, non-combative, light-class machine built for harsh environments. Equipped with slower but stronger hydraulic pistons, it can move heavy obstacles like concrete slabs during exploration. Designed for long-range missions, it transmits data even in highly radioactive areas. Its key feature is four plant chambers that maintain optimal humidity and temperature within the Botanical Preservation Module, protecting retrieved plants from radiation. In compliance with Dominion law, Vitalis does NOT use artificial intelligence. Public Advisory: The International Auditing Committee considers the documented information proprietary technology of the listed Reporter and related members. Attempts to claim information disclosed within this package will be met with swift justice by the Royal Technocratic Dominion.
