Falling Hazards

WARNING: The robot can cause serious injury to personnel or damage to
itself or other equipment if it drives off of a ledge, such as a loading dock, or
down stairs.
Physical Barriers
The edge of a loading dock, the entrance to downward stairs, or any other substantial drop
that is within the robot's expected operating area should be physically marked so that the
robot's navigation laser will see the barrier, and stop before reaching it. The robot's navigation
laser scans at 203 mm (8 in.), so the barrier must cover at least that height.
This needs to be continuous at the site, so that the robot can't drive around or through it to the
dropoff.
Logical Barriers
You should also use forbidden areas, sectors, or lines with several feet of safety zone (padding)
before the actual dropoff, to ensure the the robot will not try to drive there.
These need to be continuous at the site, so that the robot can't plan a path to drive around or
between them to the dropoff.
