What Are Automated Guided Vehicles, AGVs?

Automated Guided Vehicles, AGVs, are vehicles that are built to run unmanned, usually, but not always, in an industrial setting. The vehicles navigate through the facility by a variety of methods, such as: a wire buried in the floor, vision, magnetic tape, or lasers. AGVs do what fork lifts used to do, but so much more!
