Executive Summary : | Remote controlled Rovers can be used in environments where it is not possible for humans to enter, places where the remote location is inaccessible or too dangerous for humans. For such cases, it is better to send remote controlled rovers. To control the rover remotely, it is required to map the rover environment and control the navigation precisely. The rover’s objective is to navigate in the desired environment and map the environment. The rovers can be used as rescue rovers during disaster scenarios and also for mapping tourist places / archeological places. The output map to be published in Bhuvan. |
