Sensors

Laser Rangefinders
The onboard SICK S300-Expert laser rangefinder is a very precise scanning sensor. The laser provides 500
readings in a 250 degree field of view, with a typical maximum range of 15 m (49.2 ft). The laser operates
in a single plane, positioned at about 191 mm (7.5 in.) above the floor. In most environments, the sensor
will provide highly-accurate data.
Glass, mirrors, and other highly-reflective objects cannot be reliably detected by the laser. Caution must
be exercised when operating the platform in areas that have these types of objects. If the platform will
need to drive in close proximity of these objects, we recommend that you use a combination of markings
on the objects, such as tape or painted strips, and also use forbidden sectors in the map, so that the
platform knows to plan paths safely around these objects.
