Abstract

The invention relates to an autonomous vehicle comprising a driving means and a system including such autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle furthermore comprises at least one environment sensing means (10, 11) for sensing an environment of the autonomous vehicle (1). It furthermore comprises a computing unit (7) configured to perform a mapping function and a localization function. The mapping function is performed on the basis of respective signals supplied from the at least one environment sensing means (10, 11) to build up a map. The localization function localizes the autonomous vehicle (1) within the map and generates respective localization information, The autonomous vehicle (1) further comprises a boundary distance sensing means (12, 13) configured to generate a distance signal correlated to a distance between the autonomous vehicle and a boundary indication means (15). The computing unit (7) is configured to receive the distance signal and to perform at least one of the mapping function and the localization function on the basis of a signal from the at least one environment sensing means (10, 11) and the distance signal from the boundary distance sensing means (12, 13). The system comprises in addition to the autonomous vehicle a boundary wire indicating a border of an entire area in which autonomous driving of the autonomous vehicle (1) shall be performed.
