But how do you ensure that your mobile robots are where they should be and that the data from them gets to you in a timely manner? The picoScan120 is engineered to excel in these demanding applications, offering a range of features that make it an ideal choice for indoor AMRs. The picoScan120 offers exceptional performance in a compact form. It streams value-driven measurement data for all types of indoor mobile robots.

Meeting the Demands of a Growing Market

If you’re in need of something that helps your robots navigate the complex factory environment, look no further than the picoScan120. This compact, yet powerful sensor was designed to meet the demanding requirements of indoor applications, making it the perfect choice for any fleet of AMRs. It’s pigtail configuration minimizes the space needed for integration, allowing for the deployment of more compact and small AMRs to maximize space and performance.  

AMRs equipped with the picoScan120 can transport materials between different production lines with an unparalleled level of precision and reliability, ensuring smooth and efficient material handling.

Navigating Complex Environments

One of the most challenging areas of a plant is the storage warehouse, where AMRs must navigate through rows of shelves filled with raw materials and finished products. The picoScan120's wide sensing range, capable of detecting objects up to 30 meters away, ensures that robots avoid collisions and efficiently locate the items needed to transport.

One of the standout features of the picoScan120 is its fine angular resolution of 0.1°. This high level of precision allows AMRs to perceive detailed geometries, which is crucial for contour navigation. Whether it's navigating narrow aisles in a warehouse or maneuvering through complex layouts in a manufacturing plant, the picoScan120 ensures that robots can move accurately and efficiently.

This sensor also does well in avoiding collisions with a high working range on low remission. It can detect most objects up to 30 meters away and even dark objects at 18 meters . This wide sensing range allows AMRs to see all types of objects and avoid collisions, ensuring smooth operations in busy indoor environments.

High Performance in a Compact Design

Space is often at a premium in indoor settings, and the picoScan120 is designed with this in mind. Its compact design and pigtail configuration reduce the integration space required for the sensor, making it perfect for small AMR dimensions. This allows for more flexible and optimized mobile robot platforms that can navigate tight spaces with ease.

The picoScan120 is not just about high performance; it's also about delivering value. Designed for budget-conscious mobile platforms, this sensor offers a value-driven product offering that doesn't compromise on quality. Its robust performance, advanced connectivity, and ease of integration make it a cost-effective solution for enhancing the capabilities of indoor AMRs.
