Terrain Awareness Using a Tracked Skid-Steering Vehicle With Passive Independent Suspensions

This paper presents a novel approach for terrain characterization based on a tracked skid-steer vehicle with a passive independent suspensions system. A set of physics-based parameters is used to characterize the terrain properties: drive motor electrical currents, the equivalent track, the power sp...
