| Summary: | In order for an autonomous unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) to drive on off-road terrain at high speeds, the vehicle has to dynamically interact with the environment around it. Issues that are essential in analyzing includes knowing where the vehicle intends to go, what are the possible hazards around, and many other details of the topography of the terrain. There has been a lot of research done on how to detect and avoid obstacles, terrain classification and path planning. However, despite the use of the most recent technology it is still not possible for UGV to go through different types of obstacle in high speed autonomously. One of the trickiest challenges is the detection of negative obstacle; mainly due to the difficulty in long range detection. |
