Abstract

In recent past emphasis on material handling requirements in industry has gone up considerably and in particular several researchers have attempted to improve the indoor material handling. In this paper an autonomous navigation system is implemented on a trolley for applications intending to move the trolley along a predefined path without human operator assistance. The trolley operates in two modes: Learning mode and Autonomous mode. In the learning mode the operator has to manually move the trolley along a path, it has to follow autonomously when the autonomous mode is activated.
