Drive and control system of minitype ground-moving robot

On the battlefield of 21 century, the initial stage of the war would almost be a contest among the unmanned systems. Tireless, dauntless minitype unmanned systems must be the most ideal soldiers. The need for small mobile weapons systems (SMWS) becomes more crucial. This paper does the study making a target of six tracks ground-moving robot. The robot is controlled mostly by remote control. The paper describes the structure of the robot's drive and control system in which embedded computer PC104 is the key component. The main program based on serial port RS232 communication is explained in the article. After timing and testing experiments, we see that the selection and control method meet the needs of robot's overall performance specifications
