Magnetic Tape – The tapes can be magnetic or coloured. AGVs are fitted with appropriate guide sensors to follow path of the tape. The tapes can be easily removed/alter in case customers wishes to change path. Coloured tapes are cheaper but risk of being damaged or dirty easily compared to magnetic bar/tape.

GPS Mapping System – The AGV recognises the environment and landmarks. It detects and identifies columns, racks and walls inside the factory. These are fixed references they use to position itself in real-time and determining its route. The routes can be modified as needed.

Inertial Navigation System – This involves a computer to control and assigns tasks to the AGVs. Transponders are embedded in the floor where the AGVs uses these to navigate its course. This type of navigation is also known as the Gyroscope Navigation. Its advantage is that it can be used in any environment including tight aisles or extreme temperatures.

Laser-Guided – It uses reflective tapes on walls or fixed landmarks. It operates in a form of laser transmitter and receiver by the same sensor. It automatically calculates the angle and distances to any reflectors that is in line of sight and range. This information is then processed and mapped out in the AGV memory and current position is compared with programmed path in reflector layout map. The constantly updated positions will move the
AGVs to the desired location.

In addition, we are also working to customised the AGVs to cater to the demands of today’s society such as creating a UV Disinfection robot on an AGV, Healthcare delivery robot, spray disinfection robot, Telepresence robot etc.
