Abstract
In the context of rapidly growing logistics demand, traditional warehouse management methods are inadequate in meeting contemporary efficiency and accuracy requirements. The present study proposes the development of an intelligent warehouse visualization platform, the objective of which is to address issues such as high labor dependency, opaque inventory, and operational inefficiencies. The construction of a virtual warehouse environment was undertaken using Unity3D, with the aim of simulating real-world zones. These comprised storage areas, automatic guided vehicle (AGV) pathways, and operational spaces. The platform incorporates radio frequency identification devices (RFID) for item tracking and a role-based access system, enabling real-time monitoring and management of inbound, inventory, and outbound processes. In order to optimize AGV path planning, the proposed algorithm incorporates a dynamic weighted heuristic, a five-neighborhood search, a bidirectional search, and Bézier curve-based smoothing. The efficacy of these enhancements has been demonstrated through a reduction in searched nodes, computation time, and path length, while simultaneously enhancing smoothness. As demonstrated by simulations conducted in Unity3D, the optimized algorithm exhibits a reduction in search nodes of 59.19%, in time of 45.41%, and in path length of 18%, in comparison with the conventional A-star algorithm. The platform offers a safe, efficient, and scalable solution for enterprise training and operational simulation, contributing valuable insights for intelligent warehouse upgrading.
