Abstract
Along with the flourishing development of Internet of Things, vehicles which assist move goods are developed as well, for example, automatic guided vehicle applied in manufacturing plants. Vehicles vary with pattern of goods to be moved. If it moves along magnetic tapes, it would lose its flexibility in moving directions. To make vehicles more dynamic and convenient, this study designs and implements automatic following technology of vehicles. Through relative position between vehicles and objects to be followed positioned by satellite and laser radar installed on vehicles which can detect relative distance, vehicles are able to automatically follow objects to be followed.
