ROC C1 is a compact rock drill solution for jobs where flexibility and maneuverability are key. It can be folded together and transported in a 10 foot container. Four independently controllable tracks are suitable for any terrain. The articulating arm enables free sideways and upwards motions. With a semi-autonomous solution the operator can work alongside the rig or at a distance.

the wheels like a copy of a BRAUN winner
Design something that is going to save the planet not to help destroy it !!!
Smaller, more compact drills will help save the planet. It means that the tracks that it produces will be smaller and will have less impact on the environment. As a sidenote I don’t actually believe it’s possible with our current tech to destroy the planet. It’s a big hunk of rock and even with all of our nukes we would not be able to scour the earth.
Cool design and idea, but…
It kinda already exists :

in the title you say ‘amazing rock drill’, but is it really that amazing?
