In this embodiment, the laser scanner is a nanoScan3 security laser scanner.
The AGV executes a set instruction and carries a target goods shelf, and in the process of carrying the goods shelf, the AGV reciprocates according to a set travelling path. The detection operation in step S100 occurs in a process in which the AGV approaches the target rack and is about to transport the target rack, and when the AGV travels along the set travel path and is about to reach the position of the target rack, the distance between the AGV and the target rack in front is detected by the distance measurement means.
