An increase in functionality of semi-autonomous vehicles (SAV) through the implementation of intelligent distributed control and smart sensing techniques is presented. In combination with a modular design approach, this facilitates system modification and improvement, combined with faster customisation of the platform. A distributed and reactive behavioural control architecture is used to realise local autonomous navigation capabilities; improved operator interaction; self protection and safer operation. A virtual engineering environment based on a computer-aided-graphics platform is used (I) for modelling the vehicle and the environment in which it can operate; (2) developing preemptive learning and training of responses/behaviours, and (3) for evaluation of vehicle functionality as part of an integrated materials handling system.
