| Abstract | ||
| ABSTRACT In recent years, there has been a great interest worldwide in the development of Autonomous Ground Vehicle System (AGVS) technologies due to their potential in civil and military applications. This paper presents an effective algorithm to control the speed of a tracked vehicle. This is part of a larger control system that converts a manual driving vehicle into a remotely one. To achieve this goal an electronically controlled module is proposed, realized and implemented on the fuel pedal. The necessary sensors and actuators have been added to the conventional vehicle. These sensors and actuators have been selected according to the design diagram of vehicle control system and system calculations where the LabVIEW software is used as base environment for implementation of the system controller as well as the development of the control algorithm. For investigation of the implemented fuel pedal control system, a dynamic model is developed and the simulation results were found to agree to a great extent with the real test results. | ||
