Reversing
The LiDAR cannot detect objects lower than
0.5m behind the robot and there's a blind
spot behind the panning inspection module.
Overhead
The LiDAR might not detect low items that
obstacles
are close to the robot and that might hit the
panning inspection module. This is especially
significant during sharp turns and for thin
overhead items like cables.
Shiny and low
The Ex enclosure of the LiDAR causes
reflection
significant attenuation which means shiny
items.
and low reflective objects might be
detectable only close to the robot
Rain, steam
These will obstruct the LiDAR's beam.
and snow
Localisation and object detection will be less
effective.
Clear materials LiDAR will not detect objects like glass doors.
High contrast
The LiDAR is not affected by light in the
environments
visible range.

Only reverse over short
distances over which the robot
has recently driven forwards.
Keep robot routes clear of such
items.
Paint or cover these items.
Avoid leaving shiny, temporary
items on the robot's routes.
Do not perform missions in
these conditions or provide
remote supervision of the
mission by a human.
Facilities seldom contain such
