Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This article examines the current state of warehouse logistics, which is characterized by the use of automated technologies and software for work performed in the warehouse to reduce logistics costs. Automation of all types of warehouses increases the cost of warehouse operations by automating small, repetitive tasks, allowing workers to focus on more complex tasks. The development of information technologies and the use of modern technology expand the possibilities of improving the efficiency of the warehouse. The warehouse robotics industry includes several types of warehouse robots that serve different purposes and functions, such as filling orders and moving inventory in a warehouse, etc. One of the types of warehouse robotics that we consider in this article are vehicles with automatic control technology AGV (Automatic guided vehicle). The AGV technology is based on an automatic trolley, an electric tool that transports goods from place to place. Since the trolley is controlled automatically, maintenance of the trolley does not require a separate operator-the trolleys move along a given trajectory in isolated conditions without the need for human labor. In addition to the need to maintain the required product quality, the use of AGV has the following advantages: reducing the number of personnel, especially high-quality and responsible transport operators, ensuring occupational safety, minimizing damage caused by product damage, since all movements of vehicles with automatic control can be precisely programmed.
