CONFIGURATION OF AUTOMATED GUIDED VEHICLES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18580299 titled 'CONFIGURATION OF AUTOMATED GUIDED VEHICLES
The abstract of this patent application describes methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer readable media for configuring a plurality of automated guided vehicles (AGVs).
- A plurality of folders corresponding to the AGVs are created at a management system, each containing at least one configuration file for configuring an AGV.
- Based on a configuration file in a folder, a further folder is updated, and one or more configuration files in the updated folder are transmitted to the corresponding AGV.
- The disclosure provides apparatuses, systems, and computer readable media for managing a plurality of AGVs.
Potential Applications: - Logistics and warehouse management - Manufacturing automation - Transportation systems
Problems Solved: - Efficient configuration and management of multiple AGVs - Streamlining operations in complex environments
Benefits: - Increased productivity and efficiency - Reduced manual intervention in AGV configuration - Enhanced overall system performance
Commercial Applications: Automated warehouse systems, industrial manufacturing facilities, distribution centers
Prior Art: Readers can explore prior patents related to AGV configuration and management systems to understand the evolution of this technology.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in AGV technology, particularly in the field of autonomous navigation and fleet management.
Questions about AGV Configuration and Management: 1. How does this technology improve the overall efficiency of AGV operations?
- This technology streamlines the configuration process and ensures seamless communication between the management system and individual AGVs, leading to improved productivity and performance.
2. What are the key features that set this system apart from traditional AGV management solutions?
- The system's ability to create and update folders with configuration files for each AGV individually, along with the automated transmission of updated configurations, distinguishes it from conventional methods.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer readable media for configuring a plurality of automated guided vehicles (AGVs). In a method, a plurality of folders corresponding to the plurality of AGVs are created at a management system managing the plurality of AGVs. A folder includes at least one configuration file for configuring an AGV. Based on a configuration file in the folder, a further folder of the plurality of folders is updated. One or more configuration files in the updated further folder are transmitted to an AGV corresponding to the further folder. Further, embodiments of present disclosure provide apparatuses, systems, and computer readable media for managing a plurality of AGVs.
