Thus,material resources management is crucial to every company. The transport of materialsbetween a warehouse and a production line is one classic example of a process possible tobe optimized. The aim of this paper is to present the development of a prototype for anAutomated Guided Vehicle, AGV. The purpose of the work was to build a small, lowcost,and electric vehicle able to transport small packages. All control devices,supervision applications, and user-interface software, was entirely developed for thisproject. Furthermore, the behavior of the robot will also be analyzed and discussed in thisarticle.
