Abstract

A method for controlling at least one industrial truck comprising determining a driving job using a superordinate control unit and sending the driving job from the superordinate control unit to a transceiver of the at least one industrial truck. The driving job is transmitted from the transceiver to a vehicle controller. A position of the at least one industrial truck within a previously known route to be driven is determined via the superordinate control unit. An upcoming driving situation is identified using the superordinate control unit and is based on the position of the at least one industrial truck and the driving job. A protective field is generated with a collision protection apparatus, wherein the protective field is monitored by the at least one industrial truck based on the upcoming driving situation even before the at least one industrial truck reaches the driving situation.
