Abstract
A guidance conductor for a driverless vehicle which is controlled to move along a track way by detecting an induction field. The guidance conductor is a continuous conductor having portions laid parallel in a predetermined spaced relation to each within the track way so as to form substantially a closed circuit, and is energized by a high frequency source. The guidance conductor also has loop portions in which only one portion of the conductor is laid. The driverless vehicle is adapted to detect the induction field generated by the guidance conductor.
