Abstract

Unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), which are of great strategic significance for developing high maneuvering unmanned ground combat systems, have become a research hotspot of defense technology. The development and current progress of UGVs for military application are reviewed. The fundamental components and development characteristics of military UGVs are stated and analyzed. The key technologies of military UGVs are also summarized in the areas of sensing and perception, motion planning and path tracking. In addition, the future research direction and focus of military UGVs are suggested.
