Abstract :
In the modern world of today, technology means everything. It comes in many shapes and sizes: from tablets, smartphones, laptops, cars that drive themselves and flying drones. The world around us is becoming more and more interested in new inventions. With this, there is a growing need for innovations to help firefighters, doctors, automotive and people from other areas. The paper presents an alternative way of controlling a 4 DOF vehicle that can be used for educational purposes. The main characteristics of this vehicle is that the user draw the path on PC and the vehicle follow that path.
