A method for guiding an autonomously movable machine by means of an optical communication device having associated identification, location and orientation information. The method includes: receiving location information of a destination to which the autonomously movable machine travels, where the location information of the destination is determined by scanning and identifying, at the destination, at least one optical communication device around the destination; scanning and identifying the at least one optical communication device around the autonomously movable machine by means of the camera mounted on the autonomously movable machine, so as to determine location information of the autonomously movable machine; and on the basis of the location information of the destination and the location information of the autonomously movable machine, determining the relative location relationship between the autonomously movable machine and the destination, and controlling the autonomously movable machine or a part thereof to travel to the destination.
