  • Abstract
    The development and implementation of an Automated Ground Vehicle (AGV) positioning and control system in a real world environment presents a challenge. The positioning system for this outdoor, container-carrying AGV, uses an extended Kalman Filter to estimate its position, heading and velocity by fusing together sensor data from several sources. This paper presents the design and implementation considerations for the positioning system in this platform.
