Function

The laser scanner for Robotino enables map generation, localization and navigation as well as obstacle detection through the digital detection of objects in one plane. The Hokuyo URG-04LX-UG01 2D laser scanner can be mounted below the stereo camera for a panoramic view and in the Robotino loading bay to avoid collisions. The connection to the control unit is made via a USB interface, which also provides the power supply. The laser scanner is fully integrated into the Robotino software architecture. Robotino View as well as self-developed control programs can access the measured values of the laser scanner.

Assembly and connection

The laser scanner is attached to the front panel of Robotino with a mounting bracket and connected to the control unit via a USB interface.
