  1. 1. Early-Stage Validation of Autonomous Vehicles in Ambiguous Environments : A Systems-Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) of an Autonomous Military Defense Industry Vehicle

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Maria Axelsson; [2024]
    Keywords : STPA; System Safety; AFRY; Milrem Robotics; Safety Analysis; Autonomous Vehicles; Control Structure; Control Model; NGV; THeMIS; themis; THEMIS;

    Abstract : This report delves into the early developmental phase of an autonomous vehicle designed for defense applications. Navigating diverse terrains, this unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) poses unique challenges, particularly in the absence of clearly defined directives found in typical traffic scenarios. READ MORE

  2. 2. Probability Based Path Planning of Unmanned Ground Vehicles for Autonomous Surveillance : Through World Decomposition and Modelling of Target Distribution

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

    Author : Per Liljeström; [2022]
    Keywords : Probability based path planning; Unmanned ground vehicles; UGV; Autonomous surveillance; Cell decomposition; Spatial partitioning; Target distribution modeling; Decay function; Last-seen function; Stochastic processes; Markov chain; Markov process; Markov planner;

    Abstract : The interest in autonomous surveillance has increased due to advances in autonomous systems and sensor theory. This thesis is a preliminary study of the cooperation between UGVs and stationary sensors when monitoring a dedicated area. The primary focus is the path planning of a UGV for different initial intrusion alarms. Cell decomposition, i. READ MORE

  3. 3. Augmented Reality and Remote Interaction with Military Unmanned Ground Vehicles

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Zackarias Alenljung; [2022]
    Keywords : Augmented Reality; Technology Acceptens Model; Head-Mounted Display; Unmanned Ground Vehicle;

    Abstract : Interaction with unmanned ground vehicles have traditionally been done through a lap-top based system. New technology is on the rise which can provide new benefits to operating soldiers, with superimposed information and a more lightweight control unit, namely augmented reality. READ MORE

  4. 4. Autonomous Landing of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle on an Unmanned Ground Vehicle using Model Predictive Control

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik
