An automated guided vehicle (AGV) includes an image capturing device, a storage device, a fetching device, a driving device and a processor. The processor is configured to execute: controlling the AGV to move from a starting position to a target position according to a navigation coordinate system, the target position corresponding to the object to be fetched; capturing a depth image from the object to be fetched through the image capturing device; performing image recognition on the depth image to obtain reference pixel information; converting the reference pixel information to the navigation coordinate system according to a coordinate mapping algorithm to obtain a calibrated position; and determining an object-fetching route according to the target position and the calibrated position, and controlling the AGV to move according to the object-fetching route to fetch the object to be fetched.
