AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing materials handling vehicles lack adaptive control mechanisms to adjust acceleration limits based on the operator's driving behavior during manual operations, leading to suboptimal performance in semi-automated driving modes.

Method used

A controller calculates a weighted average of vehicle drive parameters from recent manual operations to determine adaptive acceleration limits for semi-automated driving, considering orthogonal directions and adjusting maximum acceleration based on monitored driving behaviors.

Benefits of technology

This approach ensures that acceleration limits better match the operator's driving style, enhancing safety and efficiency in semi-automated operations by adapting to recent driving behaviors.
