Abstract
An automated transportation system has been developed which can be used efficiently for both passenger and commodity transportation. It is particularly adaptable to short-run applications, such as between a remotely located parking lot and an airline terminal building. Preprogrammed stops are selected by the passengers by means of a push button within the vehicle.
The system can be programmed at several levels of operation to accommodate varying predicted load requirements.
