Abstract :
This paper describes a method of landmark based vehicle guidance used for navigation in corridors and similar indoor environments. Motion tasks are specified by a symbolic course description without providing explicit geometric information. A video sensor system is used for environmental perception and landmark detection. Aspects of sensor data processing and vehicle guidance are discussed. Experimental results are reported
