Gizmo is a remote-controlled toy monster truck that has been "tricked out" by Calit2 UCSD researchers. At just 20"x14"x11" in size, it is tiny when compared to regular trucks, but it can deliver something that they cannot: an adaptable and reliable research platform that is reconfigurable for the task at hand.

Gizmo's "tricks" are treats for researchers. Each truck has a Calit2 CalMesh ad-hoc network board, which is equipped with both wireless local area network (WLAN) and global positioning system (GPS) cards. Basic features currently include full motor capabilities (forward, reverse, braking), an override circuit for manual remote control, and a web-enabled camera.

The underlying motivation of the Gizmo project is to create an autonomous multi-radio platform that can be controlled by many kinds of interfaces and can be used for a wide variety of applications, such as disaster response environments, radio frequency (RF) mapping, data gathering, and educational purposes.

prime The Pacific Rim Undergraduate Experiences (PRIME) program provides undergraduates with summer collaborative research opportunities at academic and research institutions across the Pacific Rim.
All of the host organizations are participants in the Pacific Rim Applications and Grid Middleware Assembly (PRAGMA) collaborative program, a Calit2 partner. The PRIME program is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) with additional support from Calit2.
