Uncrewed vehicle
In this article, we will explore Uncrewed vehicle in detail, addressing its importance and impact in different areas of daily life. Uncrewed vehicle plays a fundamental role in today's society, since it affects everything from personal decisions to government policies. Throughout the text, we will examine in depth its influence on people's lives, as well as its relevance in the professional and academic world. We will also analyze its evolution over time and its impact on technological and cultural development. With a comprehensive and critical approach, this article aims to offer a broad and complete vision of Uncrewed vehicle, allowing the reader to more clearly understand its importance and scope in today's society.
An uncrewed vehicle or unmanned vehicle is a vehicle without a person on board. Uncrewed vehicles can either be under telerobotic control—remote controlled or remote guided vehicles—or they can be autonomously controlled—autonomous vehicles—which are capable of sensing their environment and navigating on their own.
Types
There are different types of uncrewed vehicles:
- Remote control vehicle (RC), such as radio-controlled cars or radio-controlled aircraft
- Unmanned ground vehicle (UGV), such as the autonomous cars, or unmanned combat vehicles (UCGV)
- Unmanned ground and aerial vehicle (UGAV), unmanned vehicle with hybrid locomotion methods
- Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), unmanned aircraft commonly known as "drone"
- Autonomous spaceport drone ship
- Unmanned surface vehicle (USV), also known as "surface drone", for the operation on the surface of the water
- Unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV), also known as "underwater drone", for the operation underwater
- Uncrewed spacecraft, both remote controlled ("uncrewed space mission") and autonomous ("robotic spacecraft" or "space probe")
