An
extrem model
Hugo is an eight wheel articulated vehicle,
120 cm long and weighs 25 kg. The wheels have an individual
suspension and own motors with associated gear box.
Hugo has a digital compass, camera and
several radio relay links. When running, camera data
and data parameters are sent to a receiving computer,
which through implemented vector geometry is able to
exactly locate Hugo. Through a map in the computer,
the control system is able to detect any obstacle and
to inform Hugo how to navigate in order to avoid it.
For the operator's information the images in the camera
can be shown in a window on the screen.
