Abstract: Accessibility and mobility can be challenging for many individuals traveling across large pedestrian spaces such as airport terminals, tourist attractions, and school campuses.Automating slow moving vehicles (SMVs) can provide better accessibility, improve traffic management in crowded areas, and provide a safer mode of transportation.This project's main objective is to design a package consisting of sensors and open-source software that can be integrated with a SMV to enable autonomous driving functionality.This paper discusses the design and development of an autonomous retrofit system for a golf cart, which could potentially be used to provide rides for students needing assistance navigating the campus.
