Nowadays, there are several fields where the need to delegate human actions to robotics is more and more increasing. One of the major development deals with Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs), which are defined as ground vehicles without a human presence on board. Their main purpose is to physically replace the human driver in situations where his presence can be disadvantageous or even dangerous. Currently, the main applications are related to military and rescue environments, or space exploration. This project was realized in cooperation with the AMET Srl company and consists in the conversion of a standard vehicle into a UGV, equipped with a remote-control station and assisted by a local control.
