Abstract: Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are autonomous robots designed to navigate structured environments using sensory and control systems. This paper presents the design and development of a line-following AGV, incorporating infrared sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and a microcontroller-based control system. The AGV is capable of detecting and following a predefined path while dynamically adapting to obstacles and environmental variations. The study explores key technologies, including sensor fusion, path-planning algorithms, and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control, to enhance navigation accuracy. The implementation of AGVs in industrial automation, logistics, and commercial applications highlights their efficiency in reducing manual labor and improving material handling processes. Despite challenges in unstructured environments, advancements in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and real-time path adjustment are enhancing AGV adaptability. This research contributes to the growing field of autonomous robotics by addressing AGV limitations and exploring future trends in automation and intelligent transportation systems

Abstract:

Autonomous Guided Vehicle is a mobile robot that can move autonomously on a route or lane in an indoor or outdoor environment while performing a series of tasks. Determination of the shortest route on an autonomous guided vehicle is one of the optimization problems in handling conflict- free routes that have an influence on the distribution of goods in the manufacturing industry's warehouse. Pickup and delivery processes in the distribution on AGV goods such as scheduling, shipping, and determining the route of vehicle with short mileage characteristics, is very possible to do simulations with three AGV units. There is a windows time limit on workstations that limits shipping. The problem of determining the route in this study is considered necessary as a multi-vehicle route problem with a time window. This study aims to describe the combination of algorithms written based on dynamic programming to overcome the problem of conflict-free AGV routes using time windows. The combined approach of the Dijkstra and Floyd-Warshall algorithm results in the optimization of the closest distance in overcoming conflict-free routes.

Abstract:

Autonomous Guided Vehicles (AGV’s) are one of the critical enabling engineering marvel technologies of today, developed for manufacturing ease. They are used to do dangerous, and a few impossible works that cannot be done by humans. This paper will focus on the changes to be made in the Security systems of a GPS enabled Automated Guided Vehicle to prevent any kind of Data breaches or interferences in the GPS signals which could lead to a false signal location to the receiver, which is known as GPS spoofing, as well as Improvement in the AI (ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE) making an autonomous guided vehicle a voice automated guided vehicle. As defined in the paper later that AGV’s today are mostly track bound, which comes with its limitations. So, an AGV with a GPS-controlled motion will be able to move freely without any constraints, meaning more work could be done out of them. This paper works on this futuristic approach and its problems related to GPS spoofing which could lead to hazardous outcomes. And providing a voice-enabled microcontroller means ease of accessibility of this freely moving AGV doing its job just as an employee in a manufacturing plant. This paper aims to evoke discussion and elucidate the current research opportunities in the field of AGV’s and to identify various problems in the security systems linked with an AGV and, suggest improvision.

<strong>Abstract</strong><strong>—</strong> Autonomous vehicles are increasingly becoming ubiquitous in the 21st century; they find application in agriculture, industry, airplanes, cars, service robotics, and others; in order to display autonomous guidance, a vehicle needs to estimate its position and orientation relative to an arbitrary coordinate system; to do so, several sources of information can be used, including images, global positioning systems, inertial measurements or odometry, each according to the application; methods, such as Kalman Filter can be used to combine the several sources of information; however, the more accurate each source of information is, the better the estimation of vehicle position and orientation will be; therefore, the calibration of the parameters of the odometrical systems in autonomous terrestrial vehicles is a must; visual guidance is also an important technology used for vehicle guidance. In this paper, it is presented an off-line method for odometry calibration using a genetic algorithm and the fusion of odometry data with heading information from camera data; a particle filter is used to fuse the data from the optical encoder and the camera. This method was tested in an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) with tricycle topology, demonstrating high accuracy in position estimation and guidance through arbitrary paths.

Abstract:

This research outlines the creation and execution of an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) system aimed at improving cold chain logistics within small and medium-sized dairy enterprises in rural Tamilnadu. The AGV system is structured in a master-slave configuration, wherein a manually operated master AGV directs several autonomous slave AGVs to effectively transport dairy products from production facilities to cold storage units. By applying principles of swarm robotics, the system reduces the need for manual labor, enhances inventory management, and guarantees accurate deliveries, all while lowering operational expenses. The AGV is outfitted with sophisticated navigation features, allowing for safe operation in dynamic warehouse settings and the ability to circumvent obstacles. Empirical testing has revealed notable advancements in efficiency, cost savings, and the reliability of the cold chain. This study elaborates on the design, implementation, and trans-formative effects of the AGV system on dairy supply chain logistics.

Abstract:

Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) are the key equipment of flexible production systems and an important means for realizing a modern logistics system that meets the demands of Industry 4.0. AGVs are used from the mid 50th to delegate monotonous work of delivering products from the human to the automated device. In the long run, the usage of AGVs brings huge benefits to the manufacturing companies. But the purchase and installation of these devices significantly increase operational costs. This fact halts small and medium-sized enterprises from adopting this technology on their shop floors. The idea of this thesis work is to design and create a device that can be retailed at a significantly lower price without compromising flexibility and functional properties, to be used by smaller businesses. For this mater are used more affordable parts that can bring the cost down of a final product. This work describes the process of developing a differential drive mobile platform under the control of the robotic operating system. The process includes the development of a virtual model; selection of required components and investigation of their compatibility; development of chassis, suspension, and gear system; development of a hardware interface to interact with hardware components; configuration of different algorithms of control, cartography, and navigation; evaluation of the device. The research method is used in this work is design and creation due to the necessity of creating a physical prototype. The budget specification for the project was set to 50000 SEK and the desired payload capacity was set to 100kg. The work has resulted in the creation of a prototype of the AGV. The cost of the project is 20595 SEK. The evaluation of a prototype resulted in a maximum towing force of 300N. The load capacity is limited by the mobile base is 400kg. Safety sensors are not used in this project as the device was meant to operate in a controlled environment. The work also gives an evaluation of the Gmapping algorithm in case of using the laser scanner (RPlidar A1) and two algorithms of navigation stack: TrajectoryPlannerROS and DWA planner. The final prototype is evaluated to support an autonomous movement within a controlled environment.

Abstract:

Many different autonomously driving mobile robots are used for industrial transports of materials or oods in the context of internal logistic processes because of different use cases. The problem for the users that need to monitor the robots is that each manufacturer provides its own graphical user interface (GUI) wi th different operating modes and visual designs, which requires different trainings and constant swi tching between software. Therefore, this paper shows the design and development process of a graphical user interface in the form of a web application for the monitoring process of a fleet of automated guided vehicles from different manufacturers and answers the following question: "What are the main criteria when designing a graphical user interface with high usability for the monitoring process of manufacturer-independent automa ted guided vehicle f leets?” To answer the question, existing graphical user interfaces from different manufacturers were analyzed and interviews with developers and end-users of the GUIs were conducted. Requirements were then derived, on whose basis sketching, wireframing and high-fidelity prototyping have been performed. Usability testing and a heuristic evaluation were chosen to improve the application and its usability continually. As a result, the following six main criteria could be derived that summarize the most essential points to consider when designing such a GUI: administrabi lity, adaptiveness, observability, analyzability, robot and job awareness, and intervention.<br>Många olika autonomt körande mobila robotar används för industriell transport av material eller varor i samband med interna logistiska processer till följd av olika användningsfall. Problemet för de användare som behöver övervaka robotarna är att varje tillverkare tillhandahåller sitt eget grafiska användargränssnitt (GUI) med olika driftsätt och visuella utformningar, vilket kräver olika utbildningar och ständig växling mellan mjukvara. Denna uppsats visar därför design- och utvecklingsprocessen för ett grafiskt användargränssnitt i form av en webbapplikation för övervakningsprocessen för en samling av automatiserade guidade fordon från olika tillverkare, och svarar på följande fråga: "Vilka är de viktigaste kriterierna vid utformningen av ett grafiskt användargränssnitt med hög användbarhet för övervakningsprocessen av automatiserade guidade fordonsamlingar, oboeroande av tillverkare?” För att svara på frågan analyserades befintliga grafiska användargränssnitt från olika tillverkare, samt intervjuer med utvecklare och slutanvändare av GUI:erna utfördes. Krav härleddes sedan, baserat på vilka skisser, wireframing och hifi -prototyper som har utförts. Användbarhetstest och en heuristisk utvärdering valdes för att kontinuerligt förbättra applikationen och dess användbarhet. Som ett resultat kan följande sex huvudkriterier härledas, de sammanfattar de viktigaste punkterna att tänka på när man utformar ett sådant GUI: förmåga att administrera, anpassningsförmåga, observerbarhet, analyserbarhet, robot- och jobbmedvetenhet och intervention.

Abstract:

This thesis deals with the Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping algorithm as it pertains to the deployment of mobile systems in unknown environments. Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) as defined in this thesis is the process of concurrently building up a map of the environment and using this map to obtain improved estimates of the location of the vehicle. In essence, the vehicle relies on its ability to extract useful navigation information from the data returned by its sensors. The vehicle typically starts at an unknown location with no a priori knowledge of landmark locations. From relative observations of landmarks, it simultaneously computes an estimate of vehicle location and an estimate of landmark locations. While continuing in motion, the vehicle builds a complete map of landmarks and uses these to provide continuous estimates of the vehicle location. The potential for this type of navigation system for autonomous systems operating in unknown environments is enormous. One significant obstacle on the road to the implementation and deployment of large scale SLAM algorithms is the computational effort required to maintain the correlation information between features in the map and between the features and the vehicle. Performing the update of the covariance matrix is of O(n3) for a straightforward implementation of the Kalman Filter. In the case of the SLAM algorithm, this complexity can be reduced to O(n2) given the sparse nature of typical observations. Even so, this implies that the computational effort will grow with the square of the number of features maintained in the map. For maps containing more than a few tens of features, this computational burden will quickly make the update intractable - especially if the observation rates are high. An effective map-management technique is therefore required in order to help manage this complexity. The major contributions of this thesis arise from the formulation of a new approach to the mapping of terrain features that provides improved computational efficiency in the SLAM algorithm. Rather than incorporating every observation directly into the global map of the environment, the Constrained Local Submap Filter (CLSF) relies on creating an independent, local submap of the features in the immediate vicinity of the vehicle. This local submap is then periodically fused into the global map of the environment. This representation is shown to reduce the computational complexity of maintaining the global map estimates as well as improving the data association process by allowing the association decisions to be deferred until an improved local picture of the environment is available. This approach also lends itself well to three natural extensions to the representation that are also outlined in the thesis. These include the prospect of deploying multi-vehicle SLAM, the Constrained Relative Submap Filter and a novel feature initialisation technique. Results of this work are presented both in simulation and using real data collected during deployment of a submersible vehicle equipped with scanning sonar.

Abstract:

<p>The purpose of this research was to determine the feasibility of a laser-based positioning system as a primary navigation method. The system developed for this research consisted of an automated guided vehicle which navigated solely with the use of the laser-based positioning system in real-time. To date, there are no systems which can navigate a pre-defined path using such a positioning system. Some lessons were learned by the researcher, however, concerning the viability of this system in an industrial environment. The system should have had the following advantages over previous systems: 1) Greater range, 2) no prior structuring of environment, 3) real-time navigation, and 4) no reliance on dead-reckoning for navigation.</p> <p> The results showed that goals two through four had been met and are advantages of this system over current systems. The range of this system is limited, however, but it is believed that the next generation system should have greater range than the system used in this research.</p><br>Master of Science

Abstract:

Automated guided vehicles (AGV) are more and more used in factories to provide a smart and adaptable material handling based on localization technologies. To use vision and path finding technologies at their full potential in these vehicles, a mechanical system able to move within a small space is required. The purpose of this study was to develop the mechanical structure of an AGV. The structure is composed of a chassis and mecanum wheels. To satisfy the needs, the vehicle had to be able to carry heavy loads while being compact. It also had to be cheap to be competitive on the market. Calculation models were developed to design mecanum wheels. From these models, the structure of the vehicle has been designed. The obtained solution fulfils requirements and solves some problems encountered by the previous design of the vehicle. However the prototype haven’t be fully tested due to manufacturing problems on rollers. This study offers a strong basis to design an AGV and points out common problems related to the design of a holonomic vehicle. Furthermore, some of the solutions proposed in this study need to be tested for validation.<br>Automatiskt styrda fordon, AGV, används allt mer i fabriker för att ge en smart och anpassningsbar materialhantering baseratdpå lokaliseringsteknik. För att möjliggöra användande av visions- och vägspårningsteknologi till dess rätta potential för automatiskt styrda fordon behövs ett mekaniskt system som kan röra sig på små ytor. Syftet med studien har varit att utveckla den mekaniska strukturen till en AGV. Strukturen består av ett chassi och mecanumhjul. För att uppfylla behovet, måste fordonet kunna bära stora laster samtidigt som det ska vara kompakt. Det krävdes även att den skulle vara billig för att vara konkurrenskraftig på marknaden. Beräkningsmodeller har tagits fram för att möjliggöra utformning av mecanumhjulen. Den hjul- och chassiutformning som tagits fram uppfyller krav som löser problem i föregående utformningar. Prototypen har dock ej blivit fullt testad på grund av tillverkningsproblem av rullarna. Studien har givit en stark bas för utformning av AGV och pekar ut vanliga problem relaterade till utformandet av holonomiska fordon. Lösningarna som presenterats i denna studie behöver testas för att validera utformningen.

Abstract:

With the world's population expected to reach nine billion by 2050, agricultural production will have to double to meet this growing demand. Hence, a need for better infrastructure to enhance farming efficiency becomes apparent. There are a number of solutions that have been developed to date that are commercially available. They range from genetically modified seeds and bio/green fertilizers to advanced farming machinery amongst others. However most of the farming equipment developed has drawbacks such as: heavy weight – this leads to reduced yields due to soil compacting; human dependency – constant monitoring and controlling is needed; light dependency – excludes usage during the night or when visibility is poor. Therefore, a possible solution will be researched to enhance the evolution of farming equipment. Furthermore, a model will be developed for testing and verifying the research.

Abstract:

<title>ABSTRACT</title> <p>Automatic guided vehicles (AGV) have made big inroads in the automation of assembly plants and warehouse operations. There are thousands of AGV units in operation at OEM supplier and service facilities worldwide in virtually every major manufacturing and distribution sector. Although today’s AGV systems can be reconfigured and adapted to meet changes in operation and need, their adaptability is often limited because of inadequacies in current systems. This paper describes a wireless navigated (WN) omni-directional (OD) autonomous guided vehicle (AGV) that incorporates three technical innovations that address the shortfalls. The AGV features consist of: 1) A newly developed integrated wireless navigation technology to allow rapid rerouting of navigation pathways; 2) Omnidirectional wheels to move independently in different directions; 3) Modular space frame construction to conveniently resize and reshape the AGV platform. It includes an overview of the AGVs technical features and how the flexibility and agility can be adapted to fit military and commercial application. The AGV is being evaluated as a mobile work station platform and a precise material handling robot.</p>

Abstract:

The growing demand for efficient and reliable transportation solutions in industrial and commercial settings is driving the development of innovative technologies, such as automated guided vehicles (AGVs). AGVs are unmanned vehicles that can navigate autonomously along predefined paths, offering a number of advantages over traditional transportation methods, including increased efficiency, reduced labor costs, and improved safety. However, conventional AGVs are typically designed to transport specific types of materials, limiting their versatility in industries such as food and beverage, where both solid and liquid materials need to be transported. To address this challenge, we propose an AGV design capable of transporting both solid and liquid materials. It utilizes a line-following navigation system with a load type identification system and a speed controlling system, to ensure safe and efficient transportation of both solid and liquid materials. In this paper, we present a detailed overview of our AGV system design and implementation, highlighting its key features.

Abstract:

The initiative centers on the development and production of an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV), designed to transform logistics across multiple industries, such as manufacturing, healthcare, and hospitality. As businesses increasingly aim to enhance their operational efficiency, automating transportation becomes vital for lowering labor expenses and minimizing the time delays associated with human involvement. The AGV presents considerable benefits in material handling, facilitating the effective and dependable movement of goods. Fitted with cutting edge sensors, the AGV can navigate autonomously within its surroundings, identifying and circumventing obstacles in real time. This feature guarantees safe functionality in dynamic environments, making it applicable in a variety of sectors. For example, in healthcare settings, the AGV can deliver medical supplies and equipment, reducing wait times and improving patient outcomes. In educational facilities, it can transport documents between offices, optimizing administrative workflows. The AGV’s adaptability also extends to shopping centers, hotels, banks, and corporate offices, where it can efficiently distribute items, thereby enhancing service delivery. Powered by a battery operated remote sensing system, the vehicle is designed to follow designated routes indicated by QR codes. This approach ensures precise navigation and simplifies the complexities often associated with traditional routing methods. By incorporating advanced technology, the AGV not only boosts operational effectiveness but also fosters a more organized and systematic logistics framework. In summary, this project is set to significantly influence various sectors by meeting the urgent demand for automation in material transport. As industries continue to progress and adopt technological innovations, the deployment of AGVs will be essential in optimizing operations, ensuring prompt deliveries, and ultimately enhancing overall productivity.

Abstract:

Abstract The importance of automated guided vehicles in flexible manufacturing systems is increasing because they can flexibly respond to changes in facilities and factory layouts. Herein, we propose an autonomous conveyance system for automated guided vehicles based on the operation of a taxi transportation system to solve indefinite and accidental problems. The system focuses on the application of traffic engineering knowledge to a flexible taxi transportation system. A taxi is a transport unit in a traffic system, with high adaptability to traveling routes and arrival/departure points. We also propose a task linear density based on transport density, which is an indicator of the scale of transport, such as that of rail transport. We evaluated the efficiency of an automated guided vehicle (AGV) transportation system that introduced waiting and cruising operations, which determine the taxi behavior, using the task linear density. The results indicate that the average matching time and task linear density were negatively correlated and that the transport efficiency improved when the P/Ds were frequently transported to a centralized location.

Abstract:

Autonomous ground vehicle (AGV) research for military applications is important for developing ways to remove soldiers from harm’s way. Current AGV research tends toward operations in warm climates and this leaves the vehicle at risk of failing in cold climates. To ensure AGVs can fulfill a military vehicle’s role of being able to operate on- or off-road in all conditions, consideration needs to be given to terrain of all types to inform the on-board machine learning algorithms. This research aims to correlate real-time vehicle performance data with snow and ice surfaces derived from multispectral imagery with the goal of aiding in the development of a truly all-terrain AGV. Using the image data that correlated most closely to vehicle performance the images were classified into terrain units of most interest to mobility. The best image classification results were obtained when using Short Wave InfraRed (SWIR) band values and a supervised classification scheme, resulting in over 95% accuracy.
