“…In recent times, there has been a significant technological leap in increasing achieved levels of autonomy, particularly in the case of cars and industrial robots [38,24,30]. Both move and perform tasks in a known and structured environment [40,7]. Cars, for instance, travel on a known road where familiar and defined objects appear (other vehicles, horizontal and vertical road signs, etc.…”

In the following article, the results of a study on the impact of the suspension system used in Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) on the kinematic excitation of cameras in teleoperation systems are presented. As indicated by preliminary reconnaissance studies, these excitations significantly affect the operator’s ability to perceive the environment and recognize images while driving. Currently, there is a lack of publications and guidelines in the literature regarding the design of UGV suspensions and their evaluation in terms of improving operator perception in teleoperation systems. The studies were conducted in a simulated environment using multibody systems, where various suspension structure variants were developed. The tests were carried out on the ISO 5008 rough test track. The evaluation of the tested suspension structures was carried out using a proprietary method, enabling parametric analysis and the selection of favorable solutions for improving image recognition by the UGV operator. Future research can focus on adjustment of the UGV suspension characteristics which could have significant influence on situational awareness and the operator’s ability to act effectively, especially during dynamic missions.
