Popis: In this paper, the Cost Effective and Efficient Autonomous Vehicle Using GPS and Magnetometer with HMI on LabVIEW is represented. The purpose of this research is to make an economical driverless vehicle which can drive itself to its destination without any human aid. The concept of Autonomous Spy Robot is also demonstrated which is able to move towards the desired location and provide the information about any human existence, toxic gases' presencse and the current temperature at that remote location to the user. There are already many researches on Autonomous Vehicle based on DGPS and Adaptive Kalman Filtering which is fairly very complicated and costly method. In order to achieve good accuracy at minimum cost using Simple GPS receivers like SKM53 and U-blox NEO-6, an algorithm using Haversine Formula is developed. This formula is used to calculate the distance between initial and final coordinates and Magnetometer is used to convert this distance into displacement to achieve the desired location efficiently. The factors which affect the accuracy of magnetometer such as External magnetic fields and PDOP which determines the accuracy in position of GPS Receiver are also discussed concisely and a brief comparison of GPS receiver of SKM53 and U-blox NEO-6 is provided. All the experiments of Linear Mode Autonomous Navigation are performed in front of UCET department of IUB and their Results with Coding Algorithm are analyzed here.
