Summary/Abstract: In recent years, society has witnessed an impressive race for Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) capabilities. The development of UGVs is directly linked to sensors, processors and actuators and can be approached through a modular pipeline consisting of perception, localization, planning, and control, or through an end-to-end pipeline. The applications of UGVs on the battlefield are numerous and of clear interest to NATO, which has motivated several initiatives by member countries for the development and enhancement of this capability.
