Trajectory Tracking Nonlinear Hybrid Control of Automated Guided Vehicles
ComplexityAutomated guided vehicles (AGVs), so necessary in industrial environments, require precise control of trajectory tracking to make accurate stops at logistics stations, such as loading stations, or to pick up or drop off trolleys, pallets, or racks.

Trajectory Tracking for Automated Guided Vehicle
, 2021 The purpose of this thesis is to investigate different control strategies on a differential drive vehicle. The vehicle should be able to drive in turns at high speed and slowly when it should park next to a charger. In both these cases, good precision in both orientation and distance to the path is important.
