Method and System for Coordinating Driverless Transport Vehicles

A method for coordinating driverless transport vehicles, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a central electronic computing installation, a first trajectory of a first driverless transport vehicle of the driverless transport vehicles, which is computed by the first driverless transport vehicle;
• receiving, by the central electronic computing installation, a second trajectory of a second driverless transport vehicle of the driverless transport vehicles, which is computed by the second driverless transport vehicle;
• ascertaining, by the central electronic computing installation, a first space requirement of the first driverless transport vehicle along the first trajectory, and a second space requirement of the second driverless transport vehicle along the second trajectory;
• and
• in a case in which it is ascertained by the central electronic computing installation that the first and second space requirements at least partially overlap one another:
• selecting, by the central electronic computing installation, the first driverless transport vehicle or the second driverless transport vehicle, based on a criterion;
• and
• transmitting, by the central electronic computing installation, a signal to a selected driverless transport vehicle, wherein, based on the signal, the selected driverless transport vehicle is controlled to change its movement along its trajectory and/or to change its trajectory.
