Our team currently have a few approaches to define trajectories for Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) in luggage handling systems. While these trajectories are functional, we believe there is room for improvement in terms of system capacity and efficiency. We are seeking a motivated student to help us develop a tool that can quickly search for and optimize the best trajectory for AGVs. The goal is to maximize handling capacity and performance within the system. Specifically, the tool should be able to search for the optimal AGV trajectory, enabling higher throughput and more flexible system operation.
