The objective of ANU Rugged is to create reliable, rugged products to enable 
nomadic creatives, field scientists, and outdoor professionals to stay connected 
in the field. These professionals are frequently on the move and find 
themselves in remote locations with a need for power and connectivity. They 
are outdoor adventurists and travel enthusiasts who enjoy a life of travel and 
experiences with a few quality possessions over a more sedentary life in 
pursuit of material rewards. This project looks at three primary problem areas 
that our target users encounter: power generation/storage, 
communication/connectivity, and weight/portability. Since they are constantly 
on the move in foreign countries or wilderness areas, finding a power source 
can be difficult. As power is necessary for them to perform their jobs, it is 
important for nomadic creatives to generate and store power to take with 
them.
