Beschreibung

Academic Paper in the subject Engineering - Robotics, , language: English, abstract: This paper's goal is to give a concise overview of the various development streams that have led to the current status of the UGV area. Any piece of mechanized equipment that moves on the ground and is used to carry or transport something, but expressly does not carry a human body is considered a UGV in the broadest "dictionary" sense. Unmanned Vehicles are the common part of Military campaigns that reduce the load of soldiers. UVs (Unmanned vehicles) equipped with sensors, sonar, cameras and various algorithms provide real-time information which is helpful for the commanders to take quick decisions. Also, they provide access to the inaccessible areas in the enemy’s territory. They are used in search operations as well as in the rescue operations. They provide day and night vision which is fed to their artificial intelligence pre-trained algorithms that predicts the output to give information. Multiple robots can be combined to increase their working efficiency in the adverse environments. Unmanned vehicles are ones that are in close proximity to the ground and run without the assistance of a human operator. The sensors on Unmanned Ground Vehicles comprise the operating system for research and rescue. The robot is a significant entity in this context because it can mimic team characteristics like collaboration and communication while acting independently and intelligently. UGVs are more efficient in combating terrorism and in remote locations. Unmanned Ground Vehicles help and enhance the front-line soldier positions. This robot's ability is mostly contingent on keeping the soldiers safe or, at the absolute least, reducing the amount of casualties sustained during combat.
