…that Proteus is compliant with the voluntary safety standard R15.08. The hardware was designed to calculate “a safety bubble for mobile speed and separation monitoring,” she said. “It also has “’Safety-aware’ trajectory planning software.” “In effect, we know where our safety bubble is so when we have a choice of trajectories to take, we can choose to take the one that is least likely to trigger a bubble violation based on what we can see around us,” said Taylor. “If we really do our jobs right, the vast majority of time, our movement software should reroute us around an obstacle…

…Standards Institute [ANSI] B56.5 and Robotics Industries Association [RIA/A3] R15.08 safety standards. The update enables more than 75% improvement in obstacle avoidance, without compromising on safety. With Free Space Reasoning, our next generation of navigation technology optimizes for free space without needing a line or path drawn for it. The real world is chaotic. Robots can “thread the needle” and keep moving through tight spaces as quickly as safety allows. How does the ability Mark 3 software update affect users of Vecna's hardware? Theobald: The Pivotal orchestration software is what made this possible. The system assigns work to robot fleets…

…industry’s latest safety standards, including ISO 3691-4 and ANSI/RIA R15.08-1-2020. “Many companies now integrate our mobile robots as an alternative to manned forklifts, which can be expensive to staff and dangerous to operate,” Neilsen said. “The streamlined transport provided by AMRs frees employees to carry out more value-creating activities and support processes in production while they increase shop-floor safety.” The MiR1350 has the same speed as the MiR1000 at 1.2 m/sec. (2.6 mph), said Charles. The new robots also use a dense 48v battery pack that can charge in one hour and provide eight to 10 hours of runtime. New…
