This paper presents the design and implementation of unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) using a simple approach. An unmanned ground vehicle is an automobile without any onboard human presence. It is remotely controlled by an operator. It can be used in scenarios where the presence of human operator is inconvenient and dangerous. It is an Arduino and Android application based controlled vehicle. Bluetooth module (HC-06) provides the communication between the vehicle components and Android application. The motion of the vehicle is based on two DC gear motors that are connected to the rear wheels of the vehicle. The vehicle is equipped with the video camera (V380S) and a gun to provide live video stream to the operator and to fire in lethal situations respectively. The developed vehicle shows the possible usage of such prototype in security and military applications.
