Abstract
A method and system for auto safety verification of automatic guided vehicle (AGV) sensors is presented. An auto safety verification test can be performed autonomously by the AGV to ensure that sensors on the AGV are configured correctly and working properly. The auto safety verification test avoids human errors that exist in manual verification tests and significantly reduces the amount of time required to verify sensors on the AGV.
