ABSTRACT:
A guidance system for an automated guided vehicle which moves on a floor surface, comprises a running line composed of grooves of a predetermined length formed in the floor surface and arranged in a lengthwise direction to form a single array, and an operation control code composed of a combination of a plurality of grooves selected from groups having different lengths formed in the floor surface on the running line or in the proximity of the running line. The automated guided vehicle comprises a sensor detecting the grooves for outputting a detection signal, a running line discriminator receiving the detection signal for discriminating the running line to generate a running line discriminating signal, an operation control code discriminator receiving the detection signal for discriminating the operation control code to generate an operation control code signal, and a drive controller receiving the running line discriminating signal and the operation control code signal for driving and controlling the automated guided vehicle.
