Worldwide, there has been growing interest in the use of autonomous vehicles to execute missions of increasing complexity without constant supervision of human operators. A key enabling element for the execution of such missions is the availability of advanced systems for motion control of autonomous vehicles. Usually, the problems of motion control for a single autonomous vehicle are roughly classified into three groups:.
