Interdisciplinary Design of Automated Guided
Vehicle Systems (AGVS).

4. Introduction
An automated guided
vehicle or automatic guided
vehicle (AGV) is a
mobile robot that follows
markers or wires in the floor, or
uses vision, magnets, or lasers
for navigation.

5. Continued…
An AGV can also be called as laser
guided vehicle (LGV) Or self-guided
vehicle (sgv).
In Germany the technology is also
called Farerlosa Transport system
(FTS) and in Sweden Forarlosa
trucker.
AGVs are available in a variety of
models and can be used to move
products on an assembly line,
Transport goods throught a plant or
warehouse

6. History
The first AGV was brought
to market in the 1950s by
burret electronics of
northbrook, And at the time
it was simply a tow truck
that followed a wire in the
floor instead of rail.
Over the years of technology has become
more sophisticated and today automated
guided vehicle are mainly laser navigated
ex. LGV

7. Areas of Application:
The main areas of application for AGVS lie in
intralogistics, namely in organization, Controlling,
execution and optimization of internal goods and
material flows and logistics, information channels and
goods transfer in industry, trade and public
institutions
AGVS in Production and Services
AGVS as a Means of Organization
Taxi Operations
Warehousing and Commissioning
Outdoor Applications
