See full text

An apparatus for determining the position of an industrial truck within a spatial area, in which plural light sources are positioned at predefined locations and emit a radiation that unambiguously characterises the light source without interaction with the industrial truck, wherein the industrial truck has a receiving unit for the radiation of the light sources, which is adapted to identify the light source from the received radiation and to determine an angle of the light source with respect to a vehicle-stationary axis, and the industrial truck further has an analysing unit which is adapted to determine the position of the industrial truck from at least three identified light sources and the angles thereof.
