WARNING
You must comply with the latest version of the applicable laser safety regulations.
WARNING
The accessible laser of the laser devices on the AMR are not hazardous as long as
the beam cross section is not reduced by optical instruments, such as magnifying
glasses, lenses, or telescopes.
Precautions for Safe Use
• Although the lasers used are Class 1/1M (eye-safe), OMRON recommends that you not look
into the laser light. The maximum permissible exposure cannot be exceeded when viewing
lasers with the naked eye.
• Lasers cannot reliably detect glass, mirrors, and other highly-reflective objects. Use caution
when operating the AMR in areas that have these types of objects. If the AMR will need to
drive close to these objects, we recommend that you use a combination of markings on the
objects (e.g., tape or painted strips), and also use Forbidden Areas in the map, so that the
AMR can plan paths safely around these objects.
Additional Information
Optional Side Lasers may be purchased and added for additional object detection. Refer to
1-6-5 Side Lasers on page 1-28 for more information.
Safety Laser Scanner
Safety Laser Scanners are provided on the AMR for navigation and safety. Each Safety Laser Scanner
provides detection in a 275° field of view. Both Safety Laser Scanners provide a complete 360° range
of detection area around the AMR. The lasers operate in a single plane positioned at 175 mm above
the floor.
WARNING
Objects in the environment protruding out, above, or below the AMR lasers' scanning
planes shall be configured as Forbidden Areas during workspace map creation. This
will minimize possible collision risk during operation.
Additional Information
Optional Side Lasers may be purchased and added for additional object detection. Refer to
1-6-5 Side Lasers on page 1-28 for more information.
