Unmanned driving forklifts, or autonomous forklifts, operate through a combination of advanced sensors, artificial intelligence (AI), and robotic automation to perform material handling tasks without human intervention. Here’s a breakdown of their working principle:  
1. Environment Perception & Mapping:LiDAR & 3D Cameras – Scan surroundings to detect obstacles, pallets, and navigation paths in real time.SLAM Technology (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) – Creates and updates a dynamic map of the workspace for precise movement.  
2. AI-Powered Navigation & Decision-Making:Path Planning – AI algorithms calculate the most efficient route while avoiding obstacles.Adaptive Control – Adjusts speed, steering, and lifting based on load weight and environmental conditions.  
3. Automated Load Handling:Computer Vision – Identifies pallets and determines optimal fork positioning.Robotic Arms/Forks – Automatically lift, transport, and place goods with millimeter-level precision.  
4. Safety & Fleet Coordination:Collision Avoidance – Emergency braking and rerouting if humans or obstacles are detected.Cloud-Based Fleet Management – Coordinates multiple forklifts to optimize workflow and prevent traffic jams.  
5. Self-Charging & Maintenance Alerts: Auto-Recharging – Returns to charging stations when battery is low.Predictive Maintenance – AI monitors component health to prevent breakdowns.
