Mine-games

Article Abstract:

A group of engineers from the Development Technology Workshop of the University of Warwick have built a lightweight machine called Tempest to help the work of de-mining teams. This machine has the capability to clear the vegetation of suspected mine fields that makes the process of finding and removing the mines faster and safer for the people involved. Furthermore, the Tempest is economically built that makes it affordable to mine-infested Third World countries such as Cambodia.
