Abstract
In this paper we briefly introduce the helyOS operating system for remote operation of autonomous mobile machines and more precisely the TruckTrix®-Path Service, which is used for path planning for yard automation solutions, introduced by Fraunhofer Institute for Transportation and Infrastructure Systems. TruckTrix®-Path provides the path planning for complex vehicle structures through critical narrows. Its extensions, developed specially for yard automation problems, adopt calculated trajectories for to be driven by a real automated truck.
