Examples of when and how to use zones:
Downwards going staircases
Issue: The 3D camera cannot detect downwards going staircases. Marking a staircase as a
wall on the map will only confuse the robot as it will try to navigate from a wall that is not
there.
Solution: Mark staircases and areas surrounding staircases or holes in the floor as Forbidden
zones on the map.
Low hanging fixtures
Issue: MiR500 will not see the low hanging fixture. This could be dangerous with a top
module attached to the robot.
Solution: Mark the area where the low hanging fixture is located as a Forbidden zone.
Highly dynamic areas
A highly dynamic area is an area where objects are moved frequently. This could be a
production area where pallets and boxes are often moved back and forth.
Issue: MiR500 will stop if a person steps out in front of it. In a transient work flow area, the
robot will stop and reassess its paths many times a day, thereby wasting valuable time.
