the events of the past days have put me off armed MOCs for at least a little
while. after I posted my tribute to the WTC and it's victims, I decided to
turn my as-yet-purpousless Mech into something that would be useful under
current circumstances.

The Bloodhound is designed for rescue operations where there is a high
probability of survivors. it's body is studded with lighting systems,
enabling it to navigate even the darkest caverns, be they natural or
man-made. it's shins are heavily armored, allowing it to wade through
wreckage, when necessary. on theis right forearm are mounted
two-narrow-spread, High intensity lamps. a wide-cone lamp is mounted to the
left forearm. recessed into the shins are low-intensity general
illuminators, designed to light the area immediately surrounding the
bloodhound. on it's right shoulder is a long range sensor cluster, capable
of scanning across almost the entire electromagnetic spectrum. the
retractable antena allows the Bloodhound to relay information directly to a
command vehicle or hospital, even through kilometers of dense rock. it's
most powerful tool, however, is the ultra-sonar pole it carries. capable of
penetrating any material denser than water, the pole can identify human
bodies, living or otherwise, through up to 300 meters of solid concrete.

Well done, Anthony. A real positive effort in the face of tragedy. And the mech ain't bad, either. I like seeing it roam around the detritus of your workspace. stuart (...) (23 years ago, 13-Sep-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
