ABSTRACT:
A base computer includes a plurality of vehicle managers that communicate via an rf link to corresponding vehicle controllers (VCON) in remotely-operated vehicles on a test track. The base computer also includes a traffic manager that communicates with the vehicle managers to effect overall control of the test facility. The vehicle managers download desired missions to their respective VCONs, and receive status reports back from their VCONs.
