The Industrial Network Solutions for AGVs and Self-driving Vehicles |
How a Good Industrial Network Solution Can Help to Built Your Smart Project with Efficiency and Reliability
As the applications of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) and Self-driving Vehicles applied in smart farming & logistics industry become more developed, so does the growing demand for AI-enabled camera and high resolution image data transmission with industrial grade network solution. We will demonstrate how a good industrial network solution can help built your project with efficiency and reliability as the below paragraphs.
In agricultural applications, AGV has been applied for multiple tasks such as weeding, fresh fruit & vegetable harvesting, transmission, dairy farming, and so on. The primary function of agricultural robots (AGV) is to boost output whilst cutting headcount. The new generation ACVs are essentially multiple ruggedized computers and camera systems integrated into the tractor-pulled implement. These systems take images as they are pulled along the field and identify weeds, crops or a ripe fruit. The systems then control a precise de-weeding or fruit picking mechanism, e.g., precisions spraying of the right selective herbicide, to take site-specific actions or fruit harvesting. In dairy farming, heavy (e.g., 500Kg) automated vehicles are used in barns to push the feedstock closer to the animals or specialized cleaning AGVs are employed to clean the manure.
At the dawn of the 5G era, the self-driving truck become a tendency to logistics industry. Self-driving truck equipped with high resolution camera, Radio Detection and Ranging (Radar), Light detection and Ranging (Lidar) and sensors to detect the roadside surrounding. By this technology, they can reduce accidents and keep distance from nearby vehicles and obstacles. When truck is driving, the surrounding images will be record and transmitted to the traffic control center by wireless device in the vehicle. As the impact of COVID-19 spread, there are self-driving truck system operating in USA that helps to keep people in social distancing, and some other similar public transportation projects are undergoing in many countries in the world. For example, Autonomous Shuttle in Taipei City will be ready to test for trial operation in September 2020.

Water proof and dust prevention are the important issues for the AGV network solution in agriculture industry. ES-0500L-M12 IP67 unmanaged industrial Ethernet switch is featured 5 port M12 connectors that shields contacts from dust and moisture, also provide protection against impact of vibration and temperature changes to ensure the data communication. Its compact Din-Rail size can be installed in limited space of the cabinet on the AGV and well operated in harsh environments. As for the high resolution camera connection requirement, Konten Networks’ MT/MP Series managed Ethernet switch such as MT-1002X、MT-0804X and MP-1604XB have the powerful 10G high speed uplink which enable large size of the data transmission. The PoE boost built inside MT-1002X and MT-0804X support 24V power input via its booster function and then provide the power output to the other devices with its PoE features. Konten Networks’ products equipped system warning feature called “Event Alarm” that will send notice to inform administrator for troubleshooting while the link failed.
Technology never stop transforming human’s life. Konten Networks align our product development roadmap with innovation trend in the industrial networking industry and updated industrial standards we provides the high quality reliable industrial network solution for what your needs. In nearly future, we will keep going the development of 10G series and launch different type of 10G industrial grade Ethernet switche for various harsh environment applications. We are looking forward to be your reliable partner of the industrial network project.
