Scheduling automated guided vehicle with battery constraints

2015 20th International Conference on Methods and Models in Automation and Robotics (MMAR), 2015
Automated guided vehicles(AGV) are becoming a popular tool in industries, manufactories, etc. That is why much research has been devoted to different AGV problems such as routing and scheduling. The issues of defining when an AGV needs to charge its battery is an important issue.

Deadlock avoidance in automated guided vehicle systems

2001 IEEE/ASME International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics. Proceedings (Cat. No.01TH8556), 2002
Automated guided vehicle systems (AGVSs) are the most flexible means to transport pieces among workstations of an automated manufacturing system (AMS). The control of such systems must be in charge of avoiding collisions and deadlock conditions. The paper formulates a control scheme to face this problem.

Decentralized routing algorithms for automated guided vehicles

Proceedings of the 1996 ACM symposium on Applied Computing - SAC '96, 1996
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are driverless vehicles that are becoming a popular means for material handling. Existing methods for routing AGVs are generally based on centralized control. The central controller is potentially a bottleneck of communication and the single point of weakness of the system.

Development of a SLAM based automated guided vehicle

Journal of Intelligent & Fuzzy Systems, 2018
Automated guided vehicle is the most important research issues for mobile robot development. The important research issue of the automated guided vehicle (AGV) is navigation system in recent years. Navigation system can be divided into self-localization, path planning and obstacle avoidance for indoor service execution.

Automated guided vehicle with absolute encoded guide-path

IEEE Transactions on Robotics and Automation, 1991
An automated guided vehicle (AGV) having the ability to recover its absolute position anywhere on the guide-path is described. It uses an original guide-path encoding technique, based on the properties of pseudorandom binary sequences, resulting in a minimum code complexity of 1 bit per quantization step.

Vibrotactile Wristband for Warning and Guiding in Automated Vehicles

Extended Abstracts of the 2019 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2019
In this paper, we introduce a vibrotactile wristband for warning and guiding the driver based on the road condition in automated vehicles. The vibrotactile wristband can receive the command from the host computer in the vehicles via Bluetooth and generate the corresponding vibration patterns with six vibration motors.

Automated Guided Vehicles

1986
Mobile robots in general are dealt with in Chapter 9. An important class of mobile robot is the AGV. It is distinguished by being in widespread industrial use, and has a well-defined, although developing, technology, to which this chapter is devoted.

On using automated guided vehicles instead of conveyors

2013 IEEE 18th Conference on Emerging Technologies & Factory Automation (ETFA), 2013
Conveyors are cheaper, simpler and faster than automated guided vehicles (AGVs), but the latter have become an affordable option with pluses like flexibility and adaptability. In this work, we have explored how AGVs can replace a conveyor system in an automated laboratory for clinical analyses.

Automated Guided Vehicles

2018
This chapter provides various aspects of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV). Starting from the history of the AGVs and list of leading manufacturers of various types of AGVs in the first two sections, the third section provides the structural framework of AGV and various supported technologies, followed by the benefits of using AGVs.

Automated Guided Vehicles

1990
Abstract : A considerable cost is incurred in today's manufacturing industry in the process of manually moving components between work stations. One possible means of reducing this cost may be found through the use of computer- controllable Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs).
