| Abstract: | An automated guided vehicle (AGV) is an unmanned vehicle used to transport unit loads from one location to another. There are three major components of an automated guided vehicle system (AGVS): vehicles, guidance system and controls. Within each of these there are several alternative designs. Given the high costs of an AGV system, it is important to test proposed designs prior to implementation. This paper presents an AGVS simulator, AGVSim2, to be used as a testbed for evaluating free-ranging vehicle system design. |
