Autonomous all-terrain vehicle (ATV)

An autonomous all-terrain vehicle (ATV), comprising:

• an interface including a button associated with a ‘remember path’ command;
• a controller, implemented via a processor and a memory, receiving the ‘remember path’ command based on a press of the button;
• a location unit, implemented as GPS hardware:
• determining a location associated with the autonomous ATV;
• and
• determining a path being travelled by a leader device;
• and
• a navigation module, implemented via the processor:
• determining a first route for the autonomous ATV based on the path being travelled by the leader device;
• and
• storing the first route for the autonomous ATV as a first preset route based on the received ‘remember path’ command,
• wherein the controller receives a ‘recall path’ command,
• wherein the navigation module determines a second route for the autonomous ATV based on the received ‘recall path’ command and the stored first preset route, and
• wherein the controller controls a drive controller of the autonomous ATV based on the determined second route shaped identically to the first route from a start location different than the location associated with the autonomous ATV during the ‘remember path’ training, and
• wherein the drive controller executes the determined second route to move the ATV along the determined second route.

An autonomous all-terrain vehicle (ATV), comprising:

• a communications module receiving a ‘remember path’ command from a remote device;
• a controller, implemented via a processor and a memory, receiving the ‘remember path’ command from the communications module;
• a location unit, implemented as GPS hardware:
• determining a location associated with the autonomous ATV;
• and
• determining a path being travelled by a leader device;
• and
• a navigation module, implemented via the processor:
• determining a first route for the autonomous ATV based on the path being travelled by the leader device;
• and
• storing the first route for the autonomous ATV as a first preset route based on the received ‘remember path’ command,
• wherein the controller receives a ‘recall path’ command,
• wherein the navigation module determines a second route for the autonomous ATV based on the received ‘recall path’ command and the stored first preset route, and
• wherein the controller controls a drive controller of the autonomous ATV based on the determined second route shaped identically to the first route from a start location different than the location associated with the autonomous ATV during the ‘remember path’ training, and
• wherein the drive controller executes the determined second route to move the ATV along the determined second route.
