Abstract

The invention relates to a method of controlling an automated guided vehicle on a path between a start position and an object handle position. The control includes navigating the automated guided vehicle in a predefined corridor along a first part of said path, towards an alignment position. The control further includes navigating the automated guided vehicle, along a second part of said path, towards a docking start position, based on at least one predetermined navigation step. The control includes navigating said automated guided vehicle at least partly based on input from said primary sensor along a third part of said path and stopping movement of said automated guided vehicle when said automated guided vehicle is aligned with said object handle position.
