Abstract
Real-time methods of micro-computer assistance for an operator to stee r a vehicle are presented. The vehicle is directed along a path using an analogue joystick connected to a microcomputer interface. Data from the joystick is processed and was combined with information from othe r sensors. The output is used to assist the operator in steering the v ehicle by tele-operation. The steering data may be stored in the micro -computer and used later to analyse the movements of the vehicle. The paper concentrates on the new algorithms for the intelligent mixing of the inputs in the vehicle micro-controller.
