Method for operating a driverless transport vehicle comprising the following method steps: (a) automatically moving a driverless transport vehicle from a starting point to a destination controlled in particular by a control device of the driverless transport vehicle, (b) after automatically stopping the driverless transport vehicle at the destination, automatically detecting the environment at the destination using at least one sensor of the driverless transport vehicle, and (c) comparing signals or data assigned to the environment and detected by the at least one sensor witch signals or data that are assigned to a target position or target orientation of the driverless transport vehicle at the destination, in particular by means of the control device of the driverless transport vehicle, characterised by (d) automatically moving the driverless transport vehicle, controlled in particular by the control device, based on the comparison of the signals or data assigned to the environment detected by the at least one sensor witch signals or data that are assigned to a target position or target orientation of the driverless transport vehicle, so that the actual position or actual orientation is the same as the target position or target orientation at least within a prespecified tolerance, by means of a position control or an orientation control, wherein the reference variable of the position control or the orientation control is assigned to the target position or the target orientation of the driverless transport vehicle and the control variable of the position control or the orientation control is assigned to the actual position or the actual orientation of the driverless transport vehicle at the destination.
