ABSTRACT:
A navigation system for guiding unmanned vehicles with any desired wheel configuration without guide wire for free movement on paths and along curves along a virtual reference path having at least one straight and/or curved section. Discrete elements are floor-installed which are in operative connection with a vehicle internal path control device via the vehicle's internal sensory analysis system for correcting the course of the industrial truck. The discrete elements are arranged at spaced locations exclusively along the area of the reference path forming a linear formation chain as navigation reference points P. The distance between the reference points P are either regular or irregular and may be relatively great distances equal to a multiple of the wheel base of the vehicle. The on-board sensory analysis system exclusively determines the distances and measures the distance between the longitudinal axis of the industrial truck and the navigation reference point P.
