| Summary: | This paper proposes the multipurpose and wirelessly controlled UGV which can move across the surface, detect objects and classify them. It can also monitor and inspect object under interest if detects any undesirable condition then inform corresponding authority for further immediate actions. The Mini Rover-Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) is any piece of mechanized equipment that moves across the surface of the ground and serves as a means for carrying or transporting something, but explicitly does not carry a human being. It will be able to go to places that human cannot reach for the sack of exploration and observation. The UGV operates without an onboard human presence. UGVs are used for the purpose of search and rescue, security and surveillance, terrain and forest monitoring because it is inconvenient, inefficient, dangerous, and sometimes impossible to have a human operator present in such environments. Major problems faced by UGV in natural terrain environment are reliable sensing, route finding, and object detection and identification. We combine a set of sensors and image processing techniques to counter these problems by getting a more extensive perception of the environment. |
