Application: Automated guided vehicle management system and method (Patent ID: US20240045444A1)

The patent filed by Delta Electronics Inc. describes an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) management system that includes modules for battery recharge management, task management, and AGV path planning. The system ensures that AGVs are recharged by wireless charging units in a parking area, with AGVs leaving the area having a charge higher than a threshold. Tasks are assigned to AGVs based on pick-up and drop-off locations and due times, with the system delaying task assignment if an AGV is expected to complete it early.

Additionally, the system includes features such as assigning AGVs with lower battery charges to charging units, assigning additional tasks to AGVs that can complete tasks early, operating in different working modes for charging, prioritizing task assignment based on battery charge, utilizing the A* algorithm for path planning, and implementing a hybrid receding horizon/incremental scheduling strategy for online replanning. The system also includes a user interface unit for configuring AGVs, charging units, tasks, and layouts, as well as receiving task assignments and scheduling approaches for path planning.
