Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE: An image-based guide line analysis method for the flexible driving control of a guideline tracking automated guided vehicle (AGV) improves reliability by flexibly driving the AGV at a guideline in a complex structure without getting out of the driving path of the AGV. CONSTITUTION: An image received from a camera module removes a perspective component by performing inverse perspective transformation. A guideline pixel region is extracted based on color, and damage compensation is processed to obtain a segment of a guideline to analyze a guideline structure. An appropriate direction is determined according to the guideline structure after a guideline structure analysis process determining the guideline structure at the current point as one among a single path structure, a branch structure, a joining structure, a line branch structure, and a post-joining structure by analyzing inputted guideline segment information. The driving of an AGV is controlled according to the determined direction.
