Two or more AMRs operating in the same workspace controlled by a single
Fleet Manager.
The operational mode of the computing appliance (EM2100) that runs the
FLOW Core software to control a fleet of AMRs.
A computing system that consists of software and hardware packages and
is used to set up, integrate, and manage a fleet of AMRs within a factory
environment.
A map-defined virtual destination for mobile robots (e.g., pickup or dropoff
points).
High Accuracy Positioning System that uses a sensor(s) on the underside
of the AMR to detect magnetic tape placed at locations where you want the
AMR to achieve particularly accurate positioning.
Input and output signals that are transmitted to and from a device.
Persons that are adequately advised or supervised by skilled persons to
enable them to avoid electrical and mechanical dangers.
A mechanical or electrical device intended to prevent machines from oper-
ating unless certain conditions are met.
Internet protocol that provides a set of communication standards for trans-
mitting data between networked devices. An IP address is used as a devi-
ce's unique network identifier.
Ingress protection rating designated for devices to describe the level of
protection provided against the intrusion of solid objects, dust, and water.
An activity typically consisting of one or two segments that instruct the
AMR to drive to a goal for material pickup or dropoff.
A conductive device that electronically bridges two connection points.
A light emitting diode that illuminates to provide a visual indication of some
operation.
The circular lights on the sides of the AMR that indicate motion, turns, and
AMR states.
The linear lights on the front and rear of the AMR that indicate motion,
turns, and AMR states.
The process by which an AMR determines its location within the operating
environment.
A procedure to ensure equipment is properly turned OFF so that hazard-
ous energy sources are isolated and rendered inoperative during tasks
such as maintenance, installation, or other actions that require access to
electrical components.
A representation of the AMR's environment within MobilePlanner that it
uses for navigation.
The primary software application for programming AMR actions. It provides
the tools for all major AMR activities, such as observing a fleet of AMRs,
commanding individual AMRs to drive, creating and editing map files,
goals, and tasks, and modifying AMR configurations.
The primary interface on the AMR that provides user interaction functions.
The line on an AMR's map between its current position and its destination
that provides an indication of the AMR's intended motion.
Any item(s) that are placed on the AMR for the purposes of securing, trans-
porting, and transferring some object.
Any passive or dynamic device attached to and possibly powered by the
AMR to support or manipulate a payload.
