Abstract
An AGV navigation device is provided, which includes a RGB-D camera, a plurality of sensors and a processor. When an AGV moves along a target route having a plurality of paths, the RGB-D camera captures the depth and color image data of each path. The sensors (including an IMU and a rotary encoder) record the acceleration, the moving speed, the direction, the rotation angle and the moving distance of the AGV moving along each path. The processor generates training data according to the depth image data, the color image data, the accelerations, the moving speeds, the directions, the moving distances and the rotation angles, and inputs the training data into a machine learning model for deep learning in order to generate a training result. Therefore, the AGV navigation device can realize automatic navigation for AGVs without any positioning technology, so can reduce the cost of automatic navigation technologies.
