Abstract: A robot for data logging is described as a module of a portable data transfer system for use in physically transferring very big amounts of data in secure, fast and cheap way. The data logger logs and optionally analyzes sensory and operation data by statistically correlating and combining data, events, and control data from a variety of system modules, user actions, and sensors used to track system transit, handling, operation, and events. The data logger allows forensic analysis and comparison against a mission description to identify system location, transit path, mishandling, tampering, security breaches and problems arising from environmental conditions, design problems, etc. As a result, persons or events causing problems can be identified, retrained, and rectified, and system debugging can solve problems with error in hardware and software.

Abstract: A cabinet solution is provided for outdoor electronic device storage and retrieval especially configured for ease access during inclement weather. In one embodiment, the cabinet solution is comprised of a specially designed secure cabinet and a top access weather protected portable device designed to operate as a data center in a box. The secure cabinet is configured to hold a number of top access weather protected portable devices configured in the same or different configurations depending on the application. The portable devices are mounted in an inclined shelf with a mechanism connected with the cabinet door opening that closes partially the top lid of the devices in such a way that prevent rain or snow to interfere with the functionality of the system while the door of the cabinet is open thus making it serviceable even on bad weather conditions.
