Planetary rover research has recently focused on small rovers, which are competent to explore and assist in in-situ analysis of limited areas around a landing site (as opposed to the larger, long range rovers, which have been assumed to accompany sample return missions). Navigation and mobility concepts of these small rovers are, in some cases, somewhat different than what was assumed in the past. The sensing, computing, communication, and power resources of these missions dictate a rethinking of the 'large mission' approach. Recent results and demonstrations along this new direction are described.
