  • Patent number: 11584362
    Abstract: A method for operating a transportation vehicle, in particular, for driving the transportation vehicle into a predefined parking space, wherein a first trajectory for automated travel of the transportation vehicle into the predefined parking space is stored in a vehicle-side memory device, which trajectory has been detected during manual travel of the transportation vehicle into the predefined parking space and the first trajectory is assigned tolerance values for a deviation from the first trajectory, which is the maximum deviation by which the transportation vehicle deviates from the first trajectory during automated travel into the predefined parking space, wherein, in the case of at least one further instance of manual travel of the transportation vehicle into the predefined parking space, the further trajectory which is travelled along is detected automatically and the first trajectory and the further trajectory are compared with one another.
