AbstractIn this thesis, I mainly present about the navigation control with obstacle avoidance algorithm (virtual forces field) on small forklift vehicle. This small forklift vehicle is tested in the outdoor environment with different places near the I-S-E building. The small forklift vehicle has sensors to compute the navigation with obstacle avoidance algorithm. These two algorithms are fused together and prevent the vehicle from collision by avoiding unknown obstacles with steering angle and this sensor fusion makes the vehicle move to the next waypoint. For the narrow space or lane, the vehicle can’t perform the obstacle avoidance. This thesis doesn’t take into account the weakness of obstacle avoidance algorithm called “local minima”. These weaknesses should be improved in the future. The experiments are demonstrated with the maximum speed of 50 cm/s outdoor.
