Automated guided vehicles operation in human populated factory environments is a challenging task, especially when there is a demand to operate without following fixed paths defined by guide wires, magnetic tape, magnets, or transponders embedded in the floor. The paper at hand introduces a vision-based method enabling safe and autonomous operation of pallet moving vehicles that accommodate pallet...
