“…A number of strategies have been proposed for the prevention of deaths and injuries related to quads. These include: education programs focusing on training to increase knowledge and change behaviour, as well as public awareness campaigns 23,24 ; wearing of helmets to reduce head and face injuries, concussion and death 13,[24][25][26] ; legislation to restrict where the quad can be used (eg on public roads), age of rider and capacity of bike, warning labels 24,27,28 ; the use of robotics 29 ; rollover bars or crush protection devices (CPDs) 30 ; speed delimiters 31 ; and substituting other machinery to replace the quad bike 31 .…”

Context: Quad bikes are the leading cause of death in Australian agriculture, with half of these deaths resulting from rollovers. Between 2001 and 2012, there were more than 160 such deaths in Australia, representing a significant burden. Issues: There is a diversity of public opinions offered about quad bike safety. The Are You Remotely Interested … in Prevention; Building a Culture of Safety conference held in Mount Isa, Queensland, in August 2012 brought together subject matter experts from across Australia to discuss a range of issues relevant to rural Australia (including quad bikes). During this conference, the Mount Isa Statement for Quad Bike Safety was produced. The intent of the Statement was to draw on existing evidence to highlight solutions and provide a direction for future efforts to reduce the burden of death and injury related to quad bike use. The conference provided an opportunity for those with an interest in quad bike safety to come together in one location, discuss the issues and develop a common direction (the Statement). The Statement is presented in three sections: a statement of the facts that were available at the time of development; a set of recommendations; and what needs to happen next. Lessons learned: We believe to the best of our knowledge this is the first time where many potential solutions for keeping people safe while operating quad bikes in agriculture have been explored in a public forum. There are some immediate solutions that people can undertake to keep themselves and those in their care safe when using a quad bike: initially selecting safer vehicles to use; fitting quad bikes with crush protection devices; not carrying passengers or overloading the quads; and wearing helmets.

“…As time transcended sophisticated robots were designed that evolved to look more human. [1][2][3][4] Penetrating into no-man sector requires high precision tech devices like robots that survey, police, illegal border crossings and advance autonomous with adjunct human-intelligence, the activities that incorporate human can be reduced. The main aim of this work is to control the robot vehicle using an Arduino microcontroller.…”

Anti-social elements in the global environment are challenging the society with their destructive activities. Mobile land vehicle robots are becoming a crucial player in National security, search and rescue operations, surveillance networks, border security forces. In order to reduce the chances of danger towards human lives, a land vehicle robot is designed to detect an anomaly that may rise up as a potential threat on the earthly surface surveyed powered via a PV channel. This robot can penetrate the no-man’s area with great precision so as to spot the mines, bombs, missiles, explosives and threats on land. Improvement in border security leads to enhancement of high precision sensors generating an extensive stream of data and databases. The intent of this research is to adjunct the robot with human intelligence that can assist in real-time decision making from the stream of data.

“…Designing and modeling of ATV are important for the development of ATV itself. Available software such as CATIA [11] is used in the digital development of ATVs and their components [12][13][14]. The advantage of using computer aided design (CAD) software to design the ATV is proven by the simple fitting and assembly virtually [15].…”

Two units of all terrain vehicles (ATV) have been designed and developed by 3rd year automotive students of Faculty of Mechanical Engineering (FME), Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM). The purposes of this project are to design and develop low cost ATVs. The students have to organize themselves to design and build the ATVs within budget constraint. This project emphasizes on the practical and engineering applications of the subjects Vehicle Dynamics and Automotive Technology which are taken by the students within the same semester (Semester II, Session 2012/2013). The students have all the freedom in deciding the specifications of the ATVs. A 110 cc 4 strokes motorcycle engine is used for the powertrain. Design and analysis of the components are performed using commercial computer aided design (CAD) software. Basic fabrication processes such as cutting, fitting and welding are carried out by the students. The ATVs are evaluated based on functionality and design. The low cost conceptual ATVs have been successfully designed, developed and tested. With further development and research, the ATVs are subjected for improvement. The sustainability of the design and development of the ATVs depends on the material selection, design criteria and components availability.
