Abstract :
The navigation method is very important on an UGV. Therefore, in this research, we propose an algorithm of navigation method using GPS and compass and we can prove it through vehicle test. Navigation method must be divided into two part: the first part include the direction of the UGV and steering angle to desired way, and the other part is that the UGV goes through a target as named way point (WP). During the operation, the way point should be updated to the next target. In this paper, we propose a method for navigation and vehicle control, which are confirmed through vehicle test
