Abstract
Advancement is an integral aspect of society that has been driving humanity forward for centuries. The Fourth Industrial Revolution, as we know, is not just about the current trend in automation and manufacturing industries, but also, a new way of life. As such, this study had determined the advantages, disadvantages, potential, and challenges of implementing Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technologies for Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) in Industry 4.0 using Kolb’s Experiential Learning Theory (ELT) to share up to date information on the latest technological trends in the 21st century. This study is a Qualitative type of research that incorporates a Descriptive Research Design using the Experiential Research Method (ERM). The results were garnered from the participants of the Top International Robotics Tournament (TIRT) 2022 held in Taoyuan Arena, Taiwan (ROC). In conclusion, results show that even though huge advancements were made in this aspect of technology, further problems arise to these developments and will require a lot of time and effort from like-minded individuals to harness its full potential.
