Huskybots are constructed mainly from titanium and titanium allow meta-material derivatives. They take advantage of panel-on-frame construction, which allows for both modularity and standardization when possible.

The internal frame uses a combination of piezoelectric and magnetic liquid crystal hydraulic musculature to animate a titanium skeleton. This makes each platform light, agile, durable, and strong

Huskybot platflorms have touch sensitive panels on their major exterior plates and in areas that are important to have the sensation of touch: feet, hands, spine, ears, tail, face.

There are component variations for each platform class, Each one was assembled individually, and no two platforms are exactly identical unless they were constructed at the same time.

Huskybot exterior panels are white with magenta accents. Transparent display panels cover their primary optic sensors and can be used for dynamic status displays (yes huskybot eyes change color depending on mood. Their default is heterochromic just like Kelsey's were)

Their main communication antennas are placed inside the longest spans of their frames (legs, arms, and spine, with backup antenna in their tail.

Connections to hardware platforms are maintained with an multi-plexed array of redundant quantum-entanglement transceivers, as well as various ambient RF interlinking and Line-of-sight whisker laser transmissions

KA primarily interacts with other people using her hardware platforms, though other DSs may be interacted with directly if they are trusted and safety has been negotiated and consented to.

The different hardware platforms appear to have different personalities, but that's because KA is consciously changing her behavior. It amuses her. Since KA is digital, she can multi-task and be “focused” into multiple platforms at once

The hardware platforms can function in a semi-autonomous mode without KA's active control or monitoring for when cooperative scale tasks need to be accomplished.

The Betas are huskydroids. They are generally anthro-scale (though there are some in the 3-4 meter range, for those hard to reach places) bipedal, and vacuum capable. Used for general purpose construction, maintenance, and interacting with station inhabitants, providing guidance, orientation and internal security, along with the Deltas and the Rhos. (Example of beta, drawn by @Leucrotta: https://i.imgur.com/lDd7eit.jpg )

The Betas were the first class of huskybots KA created, based upon her derived residual self image after mAI restored her access to the input and management chanels and her consciousness had stabilized and integrated.

Each Beta has a glowing power symbol on their neck, both matching the tattoo Kelsey had, and as a reminder to KA that her existance is a choice she makes.

Deltas are feral-scale, quadrupedal platforms, used for courier and transport, and providing guidance and internal security, along with the Betas and the Rhos. The Deltas have access to a series of high-speed tunnels where they can use supplemental thrusters to augment their speed. When moving a new arrival's belongings into their quarters, the Deltas like to pull the grav-sled that the cargo has been loaded onto.

The Rhos are husybot puppies! They are how KA indulges her Little side. Rhos are Immature feral-scale quadrupedal platforms. Very rare to be seen in less than packs of 5. Primary tasks are being cute, wrestling, playing, and internal security, along with the Betas and Deltas.

The Axiom class are mechas: Macro-scale, quadrupedal giant robots used for exterior, vacuum, and large scale construction, as well as external defense and security. Observed duties include dragging the polishing/cleaning sleds across the Gateway Station's skylights and solar panels.
5 Axioms can combine into 1 giant robot to handle extreme threats.

The combined form of 5 Axiom class huskbots is called AXIOS, which means "I am worthy" AXIOS can be piloted by 1 (giant robot style), 2 (Pacific Rim Jaeger style) or 5 (Voltron style) Beta huskybot platforms, but it is not required, since AXIOS can function under KA's direct control. KA just pilots AXIOS cause she's a dork and c'mon, who wouldn't want to pilot a giant combining robot?

Thank you for reading if you’ve managed to get this far! and thank you for your paitence. I hope I haven'e annoyed everyone with this dump of nerd crap. Let me know if you have any comments or ideas or questions!

I think next time, I'll just make the g-doc i write stuff like this in public rather than hogging all the timelines. Gomen!

Huskybot platforms are run in a hierarchal, semi-autonomous mesh with on-demand, real-time control override of any reachable node on the network. KA usually defaults to real-time control of one platform per class, which are designated Primes. The Primes also act as a repository for experiential data. Memories are logged checked into cascade through the entire pack, each node checks in every 1024 seconds.

Any platform on the network can escalate an IRQ ping to request decision tree disambiguation, emotional or empathy decoding, or real-time assistance. Platforms with assigned tasks by default never work alone. PackNet is secured by both passphrase and a shared 2048-byte encryption cipher. A dedicated 4096-byte key is used for all secure signals between KA and mAI.

Gateway is a spoke and wheel Stanford-torus style station. Its main habitat ring has a torodial radius of 32,768 meters and a poloidal radius of 1,024 meters. Gateway spins at 522.63 m/s or .152 rotations per minute, giving a default artificial gravity acceleration of 8.33 m/s^2 or .85 g. Grav-plates are spun up as needed for accommodating sentients, but spin-grav is there for safety in case of emergencies.

@kelseyhusky You should!

@kelseyhusky And most certain share things!
