Vehicle Guidance and Tracking Systems

Our application of command and control is the Aegis Combat System. Major components of this system include missile guidance and missile tracking. To look further into some of the aspects of these systems, an extremely simplified model of the Aegis Combat System will be designed. In this simplified model, a small-scale car will autonomously follow a small-scale remote-controlled car. There will be three major components of this system: the controller and the two small-scale cars. Through this model, the team can demonstrate the real-world application of certain aspects of C2 such as command, communication, and sensor data fusion. Figure 1 shows a picture of the Aegis Combat System.
