## Potential Problems that need to be addressed
- Belt slippage
- Need to work with excavation to determine what extreme conditions this may happen
- Motors get fried or are running over current
- Plan to have current feedback to control for this
- Most cameras get occluded (need to find a way to add camera protection from regolith)
- Solution #1: Shielding cover
- :-1: Can mess with camera depth as may change focal length and mess with light characteristics
- Solution #2: Windshield wipers
- :+1: get extra points
- :-1: requires even more pins for P&H
- Utilize only BT beacons and lidar for navigation temporarily
- Would this even work?
- Startup time of jetson is like 1.2 min (needs to be around 10s)
