Former BT Man Develops Unmanned Mine Rescue Vehicle
Dr. R. L. Cosgriff, former Big Timber resident and University of Kentucky electrical engineering professor, helped develop an unmanned mine rescue car using moon rover technology. Private tests show reliable performance as the gyro-guided unit is remotely controlled by radio from the surface. The university pursues ongoing refinements and plans to equip rescues with this vehicle, capable of loading on a truck within 15 minutes and moving at 60 mph to disaster sites.
