Stereo Perception on an Off-Road Vehicle

Ab8tnzctThis paper presents a vehicle for autonomous &-road navigation built in the framework of DAFWA’s PerceptOR program. Special emphask is given to the percep tion system. A set of three stereo camera pairs pravide calor and SD data in a wide fleld of view (-ter 100 d e gree) at high resolution (2160 by 480 pixel) and high frame rates (6 H5). Thin is made possible by integrating a powerful ...

Physiological demands of off-road vehicle riding.

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to characterize the physiological demands of recreational off-road vehicle riding under typical riding conditions using habitual recreational off-road vehicle riders (n = 128). METHODS Comparisons of the physical demands of off-road vehicle riding were made between vehicle types (all-terrain vehicle (ATV) and off-road motorcycle (ORM)) to the demands...

Free and forced vibration analysis on finite element model of an off-road vehicle

In the present paper, the modal analysis on a full finite element model of an off-road vehicle. This vehicle was modeled in the CATIA software and then meshed in the HYPERMESH software. The free vibration analysis was conducted by the ABAQUS software. By applying an external displacement, the forced vibration analysis was also performed. As a result, natural frequencies and shape modes were ext...
