1. An electronic component transport system, comprising:

  • a platform having first and second surfaces;

    a mobility control device coupled to the first surface of the platform and adapted to provide directional propulsion of the platform;

    a first enclosure coupled to the second surface of the platform;

    a second enclosure coupled to the second surface of the platform and the first enclosure, the second enclosure being adapted to accept a plurality of electronic components;

    a suspension system coupled to the first and second enclosures and to the second surface of the platform and adapted to isolate a position of the second enclosure from relative position variations of the platform and the first enclosure, the suspension system including, a first suspension device coupled to the second enclosure and the second surface of the platform, the first suspension device adapted to maintain a position of the second enclosure between a minimum and a maximum distance in a first direction relative to the first enclosure; and

    a second suspension device coupled to the second enclosure and adaptively programmed to dampen movement of the second enclosure between the minimum and the maximum distance relative to the first enclosure; and

    a third enclosure encompassing the first and second enclosures, the third enclosure including, a power conditioner coupled to receive an input power signal and adapted to provide a conditioned power signal to the plurality of electronic components in response to the input power signal; and

    an environment control unit adapted to maintain the plurality of electronic components at a substantially constant temperature.
