Travel-Area Monitoring for Intelligent Free-Ranging Automatic Guided Vehicle (AGV) Control

小行星9322834 本研究的目的是开发一个系统，以控制多个自由范围的自动导引车（AGV），通过监测的车辆在一个设施的行驶区域。 监测过程将通过使用头顶摄像机来覆盖交通繁忙的大片地区，并在使用摄像机被认为不经济的地区使用其他类型的传感器来实现。 行驶区域监控可以充分利用这些车辆的潜在能力，在动态室内环境中提供低成本，灵活，安全的长距离物料搬运。 区域监测将确保为在各点之间移动的车辆确定短的旅行时间路线。 这项研究解决了一个问题，在材料处理和未来工厂的运作有重大影响。 它在通道由不同的移动的设备（包括操作人员）共享的环境中特别有用。 自由范围AGV的使用提供了一些线导引AGV所不具备的灵活性。 他们在工作领域的控制更具挑战性，数据密集型，并在计算要求方面征税。

9322834 Kay The objective of this research is to develop a system to control multiple free-ranging automatic guided vehicles (AGVs) by monitoring the travel areas of the vehicles in a facility. The monitoring process is to be achieved through the use of overhead cameras to cover large areas of heavy traffic and other types of sensors for areas where the use of cameras is considered to be uneconomical. Travel area monitoring can fully exploit the potential capabilities of these vehicles to provide low-cost, flexible, and safe long distance materials handling in a dynamic indoor environment. Area monitoring will ensure the identification of short travel time routes for vehicles moving between points. The research addresses a problem that has significant implications in material handling and the operation of the factories of the future. It is particularly useful in environments where the aisles are shared by different mobile devices, including operating personnel. The use of free-ranging AGVs offers some flexibility that wire-guided AGVs do not offer. Their control in the work area is more challenging, data intensive, and taxing in terms of computational requirements.
