The invention relates to traffic management of material handling vehicles in a warehouse environment. Systems and methods for a material handling vehicle to navigate a vehicle transport surface in a warehouse environment, including a navigation subsystem configured to cooperate with a traction control unit, a braking system, a steering assembly, and an obstacle detection subsystem to: determine whether the material handling vehicle is approaching or has reached a potentially disputed intersection; associating the pre-positioned warehouse object data, the road rule set and the obstacle data with the intersection; and navigating the material handling vehicle through the intersection using a warehouse navigation maneuver in combination with an associated set of road rules, an obstacle avoidance maneuver, or both, the warehouse navigation maneuver taking into account the associated pre-positioned warehouse object data, and the obstacle avoidance maneuver taking into account the obstacle data derived from the obstacle detection subsystem.
本公开涉及仓库环境中物料搬运车辆的交通管理。用于物料搬运车辆在仓库环境中导航车辆运输表面的系统和方法,包括导航子系统,该导航子系统被配置为与牵引控制单元、制动系统、转向组件和障碍物检测子系统协作,以:确定物料搬运车辆是正在接近还是已经到达潜在争议路口;将预定位的仓库对象数据、道路规则集合和障碍物数据与路口相关联;以及利用仓库导航操纵结合相关联的道路规则集合、障碍物回避操纵或两者将物料搬运车辆导航通过该路口,该仓库导航操纵考虑了相关联的预定位的仓库对象数据,而障碍物回避操纵考虑了从障碍检测子系统导出的障碍物数据。
