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.
