Head gesture controlled UGV

Abstract

Our Project is based on wireless communication between the controller and UGV. We are operating our UGV by user’s head gesture as well as it can be operated in autonomous mode. The whole thing can also be controlled by an Android application when required. We have done the hardware as well as software work for controlling our UGV. We have used Arduino boards for the design of both UGV and the headset controller which detects the head gesture and accordingly move the UGV. The UGV will be able to move in all possible directions. There is a gun mounted on the top of the UGV. This gun can also be controlled by same head gesture detector headset as well as with Android application. The trigger is also controlled by headset and Android app. The gun mounted on the UGV, can move in all 4 directions horizontally and vertically. The gun used is Auto Reloaded.
