  • Patent number: 9207676
    Abstract: A system for guiding an automated guided vehicle (AGV) is provided. The system includes a guidance path, an AGV, an image capturing apparatus and an operation unit. The guidance path guides the AGV. The AGV moves on the guidance path and is guided by the guidance path. The AGV moves in a vision guidance region after departing from the guidance path. The image capturing apparatus captures a vision guidance region associated image. The vision guidance region associated image at least includes an image of the vision guidance region. The operation unit determines whether the AGV departs from the guidance path, and calculates position information of the AGV in the vision guidance region. When the AGV departs from the guidance path, the operation unit guides the AGV according to the vision guidance region associated image.

  • Patent number: 9043070
    Abstract: A moving device and a moving control method thereof are provided. The moving control method comprises the following steps. Firstly, a first magnetic field and a second magnetic field are sensed by a moving device within a moving region. A first magnetic stripe generating the first magnetic field is arranged along an outer border of the moving region, and a second magnetic stripe generating the second magnetic field is arranged along an inner border of the moving region. Then, a motion mode is determined and a corresponding motion is performed by the moving device according to an order in which the first magnetic field and the second magnetic field are sensed.
