Abstract: This study mainly focuses on the design of an autonomous remote control (RC) hovercraft. In the control design of hovercraft, we apply a fuzzy gain scheduled integral scheme to deal with the uncertainties of nonlinear system. In the implement system, the BASIC Stamp micro-controller is applied as control center to perform tasks. In addition, the ultrasonic sensor is used for providing the function of obstacle avoidance, and the camera installed on hovercraft is able to catch the immediate image. With the application of image recognition technology, the developed RC hovercraft possesses the capability of recognition and navigation. The experimental results indicate that based on the proposed method the RC hovercraft can be autonomously navigated to the target.
