9.8 Side-Mount Lasers
This is an option for payload structure development. The two lasers mount on the sides of the
payload structure to detect obstacles that protrude into the AMR's path, but may not be detec-
ted by the navigation laser.
This is useful when the payload structure is tall enough that it might run into obstacles not
detected by the navigation laser.
NOTE: Side-Mount lasers are standard with the Cart Transporter.
The optional side lasers connect to the RS-232 Aux Sensors connector on the core. Using the 2
meter W Cable (P/N:13523-000L), this connector can be split into three laser connectors.
9.9 High-Accuracy Positioning System (HAPS)
This system uses magnetic tape applied to the floor, which the AMR’s HAPS sensor detects.
This allows an AMR to very accurately align itself at a specific location, such as a fixed con-
veyor.
9.10 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Skins
The bumpers and skins of a non-ESD AMR can accumulate an electrical charge which, if dis-
charged into ESD sensitive components, could damage those components.
The optional ESD skins encase the AMR in an electro-conductive surface that provides a skin-
to-chassis-to-wheel grounding path that drains off any charge the AMR might accumulate dur-
ing operation.
