• a rear section comprising a second camera, a plurality of rear wheels, and a third flatbed frame configured to communicate a load to the plurality of rear wheels, the third flatbed frame coupled to the second flatbed frame;
• one or more electric battery modules disposed in the space of the second flatbed frame;
• a traction motor coupled to at least one of the plurality of front wheels or at least one of the plurality of rear wheels, the traction motor configured to derive electrical energy from the one or more electric battery modules;
• and
