The invention provides an intelligent omnidirectional AGV trolley and a control method, comprising a driving device, an ultrasonic sensor unit (2), a motion indicator unit (5), a navigation sensor unit (7), a main control unit (8), a carriage (9) ), the compartment (9) is a box with a certain height, and the chassis of the compartment (9) is a cube with four corners removed, and the driving device includes an omnidirectional wheel unit (1), a motor drive unit (3) . The motor unit (4), the driving device is installed on the chassis of the compartment (9), the main control unit (8) is installed in the compartment (9), and there are four ultrasonic sensor units (2). Through the structural design of the AGV trolley, the present invention realizes the in-situ rotation of the AGV trolley in a narrow space or even zero radius, and realizes the movement of the AGV trolley in a designated direction by giving different x, y, and θ.
