AKAY02 DRIVERLESS VEHICLE ARCHITECTURE FOR CAMPUS ENVIRONMENT

This study proposes the architecture of a driverless vehicle called AKAY02. This driverless vehicle is designed to be used for passenger transport within a campus or campus like environments. The vehicle plans its own path between target point and where its actual location is. Thus, the path following is executed autonomously. During this autonomous movement, driverless vehicle detects the obstacles, both static and dynamic ones, and avoids them by using various algorithms. The tests for the developed vehicle are done in a controlled environment which is closed to traffic. The hardware architecture and the algorithms, developed for the AKAY02's driverless motion will be described in the following chapters.
