The Geth Armature is a robotic body that allows the Geth to interact with the real world.

Uses

  1. Physical patrolling
  2. Lock inspection
  3. Invalid care, for those unable to move on their own.
  4. Hardware inspection, in the case of an Sharingan alert.
  5. Potentially firing off other Geth-controlled units, such as carrying an IR module into range of a Roomba.

Hardware

We're coding for [http://www.swiftstreamrc.com/product/robo-buddy/ RoboBuddy from SwiftStream], but the process to be documented will be very similar for any mobile IP camera. Key requirements:

  • Articulation on the camera
  • Onboard lights
  • Durability of frame
  • Self-recharging
  • Good resolution

Etymology

While many Geth mobile units were modeled after their Quarian creators, larger security units were more utilitarian. The collapsible, giraffe-like Armature were the heavy armor that could be deployed into hostile territory to protect their holdings. Similarly, ours protects our locations.
