Lothol’s body will be built with titanium alloys. It will have tires that are low to the ground and the wheels will move up, down, and apart so that it can easily get over obstacles. Lothol will have a claw that can open and close so it can pick up the regolith in smaller amounts and deposit it inside itself. It will be able to move at various speeds and will run on rechargeable batteries, which will be at the bottom of Lothol. It will recharge at a docking station at the Artemis base. To get the dust off there would be small, closed holes in Lothol which would open, and blast compressed air to clean Lothol of dust. It will be remote-controlled by someone either on Earth or on the moon using a camera that is placed on Lothol which will go back to a monitor on Earth.
