This thesis proposes a control scheme for an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) at ek robotics GmbH. 
The goal of this work is to enable a tricycle kinematic vehicle to perform optimal detours around obstacles while tracking a predefined trajectory and considering motion constraints in a warehouse environment, using Model Predictive Control (MPC).
Motivated to demonstrate the real-time feasibility of the control scheme, the implementation in acados  is validated in simulation and aboard a test vehicle.
