| ABSTRACT This paper presents a conversion of an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) into a wire controlled Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV). The vehicle selected was the Kazuma Gator 250 ATV and the control panel used to communicate with the UGV was a sixchannel wired communication. To convert a conventional vehicle into a UGV, four modules needed to be actuated electrically; the accelerator, the steering, the braking and the shifting. The present work illustrates the steps to make such a conversion given two main constraints. The first is not to alter the outer shape and dimensions of the original light vehicle. The second constraint is not to affect the original arrangement of the vehicle controls so that the actuators could be dismantled easily and allows for the normal operation of the vehicle. The deliverable of the work must contain a labeled harness to facilitate further conversion of the wire controlled UGV into a wireless controlled UGV. | ||||
