The NavLab is a testbed for research in outdoor navigation, image understanding, and the role of human interaction with intelligent systems; it accommodates researchers and all computing onboard. The core of the NavLab is the vehicle controller, a multi-processor computer that controls all locomotion, actuation and physical sensing; it interacts with a computer host and and human operator to implement varying degrees of autonomy. The chassis is a modified van with a computer-controllable, hydraulic drivetrain. The NavLab supports a choice os sensing to accommodate many types of navigation research. This technical report details the control computing and physical configuration of the NavLab vehicle.
