Abstract

See full text

An autonomous vehicle includes a vehicle body having a receiving device configured to receive an object to be transported, a chassis having at least one driven wheel, and at least one sensor device having a detection region surrounding the autonomous vehicle for recognizing obstacles which enter the detection region in the immediate surroundings of the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle includes a joint arrangement configured to adjust the sensor device relative to the vehicle body such that the sensor device can be operated in a first arrangement which monitors the basic peripheral contour of the vehicle body, and in at least one second arrangement which monitors a total peripheral contour including the basic peripheral contour and an expansion contour of the autonomous vehicle that is formed when an object to be transported is received.
