Since the invention of AGV, a variety of navigation methods have been derived. Each navigation method has its own unique features and uses. The current mainstream AGV navigation methods include electromagnetic navigation,tape navigation,QR code navigation and laser navigation.

Electromagnetic navigation is a traditional guidance method. Metal wires are buried in the AGV driving path and low-frequency and low-voltage currents are loaded to generate a magnetic field around the wires. The induction coil on the AGV recognizes and tracks the strength of the navigation magnetic field.

Tape navigation technology is similar to electromagnetic navigation. Tape navigation uses tape on the road instead of burying a metal wire under the ground, and guides it through magnetic tape induction signals.

The QR code navigation AGV can move the shelves where the goods are located from the huge warehouse storage area to the employee processing area according to the order.It improves warehouse efficiency greatly.

Shenzhen OK AGV Co., Ltd. has developed a laser-guided forklift AGV carefully, which is composed of a vehicle body, an on-board controller, a walking and steering drive unit, a laser positioning scanner, a laser safety protection device and a sensor. The laser scanning and protection device adopts synchronous positioning technology. The laser scanner detects the terrain of the field by itself, and displays the map in its internal industrial computer intelligently, so that it can locate the AGV vehicle's operating position accurately, reduce the operating route and improve work efficiency.

With the continuous development of science and technology, Shenzhen OK AGV Co., Ltd. hopes that the self-developed AGV products can help more companies.
