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

3. 2. Local traversability assessment in an unmanned ground vehicle : An analysis of mobility on the UGV Husky

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Kidus Y. Getahun; [2023]
   Keywords : UGV; Husky; Robotics Operating System; Traversability Estimation; Vehicle Dynamics; Elevation Mapping; UGV; Husky; Framkomlighets Bedömning; Fordonsdynamik;

   Abstract : This thesis project aims to learn and understand more about implementing a path planner to the unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), UGV Husky, specifically its traversability algorithm, and investigate how it could be further improved. A surrounding grid is generated around the UGV where each cell contains information connected to its traversability. READ MORE

4. 3. Reconnaissance Radar Robot

   University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

   Author : Filip Solkela; Jasmine Tuvesson; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Educational tools in the Army can be challenging due to their size and the fact that they are often set up and used outside of traditional classroom settings. This can make it difficult for students to explore and understand the technologies they are learning about fully. READ MORE

5. 4. 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

6. 5. A Positioning System for Landing a UAV on a UGV in a GNSS-Denied Scenario

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

   Author : Tim Wiik; [2022]
   Keywords : Sensor fusion; UAV; UGV; NIR-LED; Extended kalman filter; Unmanned Aerial Vehicle; Unmanned Ground Vehicle; Autonomous Landing; GNSS-denied Scenario;

   Abstract : A system of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) collaborating with an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) for use in for example surveillance, reconnaissance, transport and target acquisition is studied. The project investigates the problem of estimating the relative position, velocity and orientation between the UAV and the UGV required to autonomously land the UAV on the UGV during movement.
