Cage_Front_LeftMiR AI Camera

The MiR AI Camera is a static camera that enables the robots to detect and recognize different moving obstacles and react accordingly. For example, the robots will continue driving as usual if they detect a person but can park if they detect a forklift so the forklift can drive by. The robot can also predict blocked areas or highly trafficked areas in advance and reroute instead of entering the blocked area and then reroute. We are the first to introduce this technology to AMRs, and it will help companies optimize the internal transportation in highly trafficked areas where traffic jam with different moving objects might occur.
