Abstract

Interference prediction apparatus is applied when an unmanned vehicle is guided within a course area based on travel position and course data, and comprises a device for inputting the form of the course area, a device for preparing course data, device for estimating error of travel position when the unmanned vehicle is operated according to course data, and a device for predicting interference between the unmanned vehicle and areas outside the course area on the basis of estimated error so that interference can be prevented when unmanned vehicles pass by each other.
