Enters unmapped drifts, voids, and post-blast zones before anything else, building the live 3D model the whole fleet plans against.
The wrist-mounted coring tool pulls Ø 63 mm samples and runs onboard spectral assay, so grade maps update in hours instead of weeks.
SCOUT fits through a standard drift cross-section and climbs 35° rubble on sealed tracks. The seven-axis manipulator trades tools automatically, coring head, torque wrench, gripper, sensor dock, from a magazine on its back.
Its mast carries the same perception stack as ATLAS, which is the point: every SCOUT survey is instantly legible to every machine in the fleet.
Field demos run monthly at the Perth field station from 2028.
