description In order to optimize the functionality of automated guidance vehicles (AGVs) in logistics workshops, a wireless charging and task-based logistics intelligent dispatch system was developed based on the Internet of Things. This system aimed to improve freight efficiency in the workshop’s logistics system. The scheduling system successfully addressed the round-trip scheduling issue between AGVs and multiple tasks through two degrees of improvement: the application of AGVs and task path planning. To handle conflict coordination and AGV cluster path planning, a shortest path planning algorithm based on the A* search algorithm was proposed, and the traffic control law was enhanced. The initial population of genetic algorithms, which used greedy algorithms to solve problems, was found to be too large in terms of task distribution. To address this, the introduction of a few random individuals ensured population diversity and helped avoid local optima. Numerical experiments demonstrated a significantly accelerated convergence rate towards the optimal solution.
