Abstract
This paper describes the integration of sensory data, path planning methodology and hydraulic motor power to create an autonomous, heavy duty, outdoor robotic tracked vehicle capable of hauling loads in working environments which can be initially unknown and time-varying. Potential applications include agricultural, forestry and surface mining operations as well as firefighting and search and rescue missions. Progress to date is reported along with development plans for the near future
