Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling or guiding one or more automated vehicles and/or people (VOP) in an environment using virtual approved pathways (VAPs). Methods include determining a set of parameters associated with automated vehicles and/or people operating within an environment, including periodically obtaining a first set of parameters from a plurality of data sources deployed within an environment, in real-time.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for controlling a path of an autonomous mobile device based upon defining a series of origination positions and destination positions, each destination position correlating with position coordinates. A current position of an autonomous vehicle is determined via location automation such as real time communication systems and an approved pathway is generated to guide the autonomous vehicle. The position coordinates may be a set of values that accurately define a position in two dimensional 2D or three-dimensional (3D) space. Position coordinates may include cartesian coordinates.
