Terrain Navigation Concepts for Autonomous Vehicles,

Abstract

The Army's Artificial Intelligence/Robotics Demonstrator Program has resulted in expression of interest in a large number of potential autonomous vehicle applications within the Army Laboratory and TRADOC communities. In general this interest is based on the potential advantages of autonomous vehicle systems to improve efficiency of operations and to remove humans from hazardous environments on the battlefield. Examples of proposed autonomous vehicle applications are: intelligence collection, NBC reconnaissance, weapons platforms, transportation of supplies and materials, and medical evacuation. (Author)
