A material handling vehicle can include a first camera to determine the position of an object in a first camera field of view, and a second camera to determine the position of an object in a second camera field of view. The vehicle may further include a fork position sensor to determine whether one or more forks of the material handling vehicle are extended and/or retracted. In one example, a controller can be in communication with the first sensor, the second sensor, and the fork position sensor, the controller to autonomously control the material handling vehicle to pick up or drop-off a load based on information from the first camera, the second camera, and the fork position sensor. -------------~ ~ ---------------- '00
