Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) systems are being used in many industrial warehouses for part transferring process and the major challenge is the management of traffic between multiple AGVs. AGV traffic control system with an anti-collision path planning algorithm which can increase the efficiency of the part transferring process in the warehouse. This paper discussed and compared several path planning algorithms and traffic control algorithms that can be implemented for the warehouse AGV systems that have multiple AGV robots. This also proposed the most efficient traffic control algorithm and path planning algorithm with the implementation of the anti-collision algorithm. The proposed AGV traffic control system can be further improved to implement an anti-collision AGV traffic control system in warehouses in Sri Lanka and will be presented as future work in this paper.
