IMULE: A Prototype System Based on AGV for Baggage Handling inside Airports

In this paper an innovative solution designed to overcome the limitations of current systems used for baggage handling inside airports is proposed. Object of the work was the analysis, design and development of a prototype system based on the use of robotic vehicles, free to move, autonomously and without constraints, from check-in desk to loading bays located near the runways. The work has been carried out in the context of the IMULE project developed in the framework of "Industria 2015" Programme promoted by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development (MiSE) as part of the research, development and innovation projects aimed at Industrial Innovation and New Technologies for the Made in Italy in the 'Target Area concerning Robomechatronics Solutions.
