Abstract

In this study, conversion procedure of a conventional electric automobile into an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) is illustrated. This conversion process is divided into two main parts as, mechanical and electrical modifications. Interface circuit, interface software, additional power system, selection of the sensors and computer hardware are given in electrical modifications part. Similarly, design of braking and steering system, their computer simulations and strength analysis are given in mechanical modifications part. All these applications are illustrated on a conventional electric vehicle during this study.
