| A Brief Overview |
What is Abhyast??
Abhyast is an autonomous navigation vehicle.The task of the vehicle is to localise itself(its position in terms of the coordinates) on the given terrain and navigate to the destination place by avoiding obstacles.The vehicle is planned to establish its connection with the operator via pre-existing GSM network, hence its application is not restricted to the range of any user established wireless networks. The payload of the vehicle is to capture images of the destination place and come back (or if possible send them via MMS using the same GSM network). Our objective here is to develop a robot which acts as an aid to the operator in carrying out a specific task rather than an entity which is in need of continuous attention of the operator.
Our UGV is a sensor-rich mobile robot consisting of sensors both for the internal and external environments. The external sensors interact with the environment to determine the external environmental conditions of the robot and the internal sensors continuously monitor the robot's response to these environmental conditions.
