The present invention is a novel anchoring system comprising: a housing; a connector
that connects the housing to an object; at least one motor which is contained within
and fixed to said housing; and at least three movable elongated members, each having
a proximal tip, a distal tip, a retracted storage position and an extended operative
position relative to the housing. Each elongated member is operably linked to at
least one motor, and an elongated member is essentially contained within the housing
when said elongated member is in a storage position and the elongated member extends
away from the distal surface of said housing into a penetrable environment when
the elongated member is in an extended operative position.
