Light indicators
The light indicators consist of status lights and signal lights. The status lights are used to
indicate the robot's current status, and the signal lights are used to indicate the robot's driving
intentions.
Local path
The local path is the route the robot creates within its immediate vicinity that guides it around
obstacles while still following the global path.
Localization
The method used by the robot to determine its position on the map relative to where it is in
the work environment.
M
Manual mode
The mode in which you can drive the robot manually using the joystick in the robot interface.
Map
A map is a representation of the operating area of the robot. A basic map contains walls and
floor that indicate where the robot can drive. You can add various map elements to determine
how you want the robot to drive.
Mapping
Mapping is the process of manually driving the robot around to create a new map. The robot
uses its sensors to detect walls and obstacles and generates a map of the area based on this
input.
Marker
A marker of a physical entity that the robot can dock to. This enables the robot to position
itself accurately relative to the marker.
Marker type
A marker type is a description of a shelf that MiR robots can dock to. You must have a marker
type for each type and size of shelf you want your robot to be able to transport.
