Introduction
According to this specification our Runners would be considered AGVs: “The fundamental difference between AGVs and AMRs is characterized by how they traverse the specified operating environment. An AGV traverses the specified operating environment automatically along predefined guidepaths (virtual or physical) using collision avoidance and can adjust from their guidepath. AMRs traverse the specified operating environment autonomously which requires the ability to navigate using obstacle avoidance and collision avoidance by detecting obstacles using sensors and adjusting paths by computing an obstacle-free path through free space rather than using a predefined path.”
