UGVs are similar to unmanned aerial vehicle UAV technology and Remotely Operated Vehicle s. Unmanned robotics are actively being developed for both civilian and military use to perform dull, dirty, and dangerous activities. There are two general classes of unmanned ground vehicles: Teleoperated and Autonomous. TELEOPERATED UGV A teleoperated UGV is a vehicle that is controlled by a human operator at a remote location via a communications link. All Cognitive processes are provided by the operator based upon sensory feedback from either line-of-sight visual observation or remote sensory input such as video cameras. A basic example of the principles of teleoperation would be a toy remote control car. Each of the vehicles are unmanned and controlled at a distance via a wired or wireless connection while the user provides all control based upon observed performance of the vehicle. There are a wide variety of teleoperated UGVs in use today. Predominantly these vehicle are used to replace humans in hazardous situations. Examples are Explosive s and Bomb Disabling Vehicles . Some examples of teleoperated UGV technology are:
AUTONOMOUS UGV An autonomous UGV is essentially an Autonomous Robot but is specifically a vehicle that operated on the surface of the ground. A fully autonomous robot in the real world has the ability to:
A robot may also be able to learn autonomously. Autonomous learning includes the ability to:
