In the last years, the interest in autonomous vehicles has rapidly grown in industrial environments, this popularity can be linked to an optimized workflow and the possible removal of human personnel from hazardous situations.
The main research topics concern active sensing, through the use of various devices (camera, lidar, sonar, IMU, GPS, Wifi Antenna,…), path planning, which must take into account a collision avoidance technique alongside a trajectory management solution, and motion control, which represent the fundamental part to an autonomous vehicle.
