Applying pressure for clearing land mines

[QUOTE="ferchotous, post: 5460141, member: 592514"] Thank you guys so much for the info. I have looked into those big deminer trucks, the problem is the logistics to move them from one country to the other makes them very expensive, the other issue is that you have very uneven terrain with small paths where they don't fit and they will highly damage the ecosystem. They are mainly used to clear a specific path so the military demining, I am focusing on humanitarian demining. Yes, the location will be known, the rc car that I am designing will work cooperatively with a Drone that have a ground penetrating radar to locate the landmines (they use those already in archeology). So basically the drone will scan a suspected area and will pin point the specific spots where landmines are located, and this ground car will detonate them almost like a controlled explosion, Landmines don't have big amounts of explosive, around 1 pound, so that's why I think it can be contained, I am just stuck on how to make them detonate. I am leaning towards a small explosive that is strong enough that will make the landmine detonate. [/QUOTE]
