SICK SensorApps 3D Object Detection

Using the 3D Object Detection SensorApp, collisions between AGVs or AMRs can be effectively avoided. The software solution processes 3D raw data, detects objects, and can classify these as obstacles. Up to 16 detection fields can be configured via the intuitive-to-use web interface. The detection fields can be combined into groups that can be activated according to the application. When an object is detected in a field, digital outputs are switched. These signals can be used to control the speed of the AGVs or AMRs. The app runs directly on the sensor and is therefore ideally matched to the hardware. This ensures fast response times and allows trouble-free operation.
