Abstract

An unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) includes one or more motors configured to drive one or more wheels of the UGV, a memory storing instructions, and a processor coupled to the one or more motors and the memory. The processor is configured to execute the instructions to cause the UGV to determine location information of a movable target; calculate a direction and a speed for the unmanned ground vehicle based on the determined location information; and drive the one or more motors to move the unmanned ground vehicle in the calculated direction at the calculated speed to follow the movable target when the movable target moves.
