In this paper, we present a primitive artificial brain developed in our lab
oratory, which is used in a mobile vehicle. This primitive artificial brain
consists of the 32-bit Von Neumman type microcomputer NEC PC-9821Ap/U7, th
e RICOH neurocomputer RN-2000, the interface PIO 32/32, the software for co
nstructing a neural network and learning, and the software for steering ang
le of the front wheels. Details are given about how to use the primitive ar
tificial brain to control the steering action of the mobile vehicle. (C) 20
