Abstract

This paper is to develop the path-tracking of free-ranging AGV(Autonomous Guided Vehicle). Encorders are used to trace the location of the AGV. A gyroscope is used to complement encorders that have the error accumulation problem by increasing the distance covered. A sensor fusion technique is applied to correct the error. The path of the AGV is controlled by kinematics and PID which is obtained the data from the sensor fusion. Experimental results are presented to verify the efficiency of proposed method.
