A Development Of An Internet Of Things Equipped Unmanned Ground Vehicle For Surveilance Purpose

An Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) is a ground vehicle that operates remotely, without having human on-board. UGVs are widely used for mission-based applications that are often hazardous or inconvenient for humankind. Practically, depending on its purposes, UGVs often equipped with sensors and on-boar...
