Abstract :
The AGV (automated guided vehicle) was introduced in UK in 1953 for transporting. But
nowadays, due to their high efficiency, flexibility, reliability, safety and system scalability,
they are used in various applications in industries. In brief, the AGV robot is a system which
typically made up of vehicle chassis, embedded controller, motors, drivers, navigation and
collision avoidance sensors, communication device and battery, some of which have load
transfer device. In this review paper, based on existing systems, the AGV structures are
studied and compared from various points of view and analysis of the AGV structure is done
for designer.
