The objectives of this thesis are multiple and well defined, aimed at solving the problems related to the modeling, simulation, and control of an autonomous differential traction rover. First, the work aims to develop a detailed kinematic model of the rover using Simulink. This model will be based on mathematical equations that describe the movement of the vehicle, considering its differential traction configuration. Creating a robust kinematic model is necessary understanding the basic dynamics of the rover and will form the basis for subsequent developments in control and dynamic simulation. Another important objective of the thesis is to implement path following in Simulink.
