LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology enables robot perception by providing object perception, object identification and collision avoidance. LiDAR sensors provide information in real-time about the robot’s environment such as walls, doors, people and other objects to navigate their surroundings. LiDAR can assist robots to carry out a wide range of tasks and to operate autonomously.
Applications include
- Warehouse logistics
- Industrial automation
- Deliveries
- Research projects
