3.4 Function and use
The device localizes automated guided vehicle (AGV) systems using 2D codes.
The device is mounted on the underside of the AGV. The 2D codes are attached in
the form of a raster on the floor. The individual 2D codes are numbered and contain
position information. The device detects and decodes 2D codes. The device uses the
host interface to send the read data, the additionally detected X- and Y-coordinates and
the angle of shift to a higher-level control (e.g. PLC). Using this data, the AGV is localized
and repositioned by the control.
