Obstacles

If the LD Cart Transporter will be entering high-traffic areas, the user must take appropriate
precautions to alert people in those areas that a robot might enter. If the traffic consists of other
machines, the user must adjust the robot's and/or the other machine's parameters to reduce
the risk of a collision.
