Drive-By-Wire Conversion for Autonomous Patrol Vehicle
1st Place Winning Project
Drive-by-Wire (DBW) conversion of a commercial police patrol vehicle. The DBW conversion will enable the vehicle to be operated via a gamepad that is attached directly to the vehicle by USB or a short-range RF (Radio Frequency) dongle. The DBW conversion will represent the first step toward the Cohort Systems’s long-term goal of creating an autonomous, collaborative unmanned patrol vehicle–i.e.a robotic sentry. The robotic sentry will incorporate the company’s proprietary autonomous vehicle software systems that have proven track record in commercial use.
The DBW conversion will make use of an existing, off-the-shelf, manned police sentry vehicle. It, therefore, represents a highly efficient development pathway because it will leverage the existing commercial vehicle as a ready-built platform.
