Abstract

Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are robotic vehicles with the ability to move using mapping and navigation technologies to perform tasks assigned to them, guided by guides. Using sensor data such as laser scanners, cameras, magnetic stripes or colored stripes, they can sense their environment and move safely according to defined routes. The basic requirement of motion planning is to follow the path and route with minimum error even under different environmental factors. The key factor here is the most successful detection of the guiding structure of a system moving on its route. The proposed system is to equip a mechanical system that can produce very fast outputs and autonomous motion as a result of combining different algorithms with different hardware structures. In the line detection process, the wide perspective image from the camera is designed to be gradually reduced and converted into image information that is more concise but representative of the problem in a narrower perspective. In this way, the desired data can be extracted with faster processing over less information. In this study, the image information is divided into two parts and planned as two different sensors. The fact that the line information was taken from two different regions of the image at a certain distance enabled the detection of not only the presence of the line but also the flow direction. With the fuzzy system, the performance of the system was increased by generating PWM values on two different hardware structures, loading image capture, image processing processes and driving the motors. In order to determine the membership function parameters of the fuzzy system for each input, the ANFIS approach was used on the data set modeling the system. The outputs produced by the ANFIS model were combined into a single fuzzy system with two outputs from the system rules framework and the system was completed. The success of the algorithms was ensured by partitioning the task distribution in the hardware structure. With its structure and success in adapting different technologies together, a system that can be recommended for similar problems has been developed.
