Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are autonomous mobile robotic driverless vehicles employed in industries for material handling. The first AGV was developed by A.M. Barrett, Jr. in 1954 which was navigated by following wires mounted in factory ceiling.
This was employed in his industry, Barrett Electronics. Now the technology is developed to perform multiple tasks and equipped with 3D vision guidance system. With the introduction and development of industry automation or Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) in the modern era these found a major place in manufacturing industries and distribution centers.
