Toposens Echo One is a 3D Ultrasonic Echolocation Sensor which can be utilized for collision avoidance. It’s the world’s first industrial-grade 3D Ultrasonic Collision Avoidance Sensor. The sensor employs 3 microphones to detect sound waves. The sensor sends the info to Toposens PROCESSING UNIT, which makes use of sound-based triangulation mixed with subtle noise-filtering software program to detect any impediment.
The 3D Ultrasonic Echolocation Sensor is predicated on the precept of echolocation as seen in bats, Toposens ECHO ONE compensates for the drawbacks of optical sensors by utilizing sound-based triangulation together. It sends the info obtained from 3 microphones, in a 3D level cloud format to the Toposens PROCESSING UNIT which is supplied with easy-to-configure superior 3D collision avoidance software program. From there, relying on which 3D zone violations are detected, the Toposens PROCESSING UNIT triggers both a “decelerate” or “cease” command to the cell robotic’s CPU. When no zone violations are detected, the cell robotic drives on.
“Having the ability to detect a number of difficult-to-detect obstacles reliably and in real-time, no matter environmental situations, permits us to supply next-level robotic security for our clients. Our expertise addresses the shortcomings of optical sensors, akin to LiDARs, which may fail to detect floor-based objects like forklift forks on the ground, in unfavourable lighting situations or on clear or mirrored object surfaces. Receiving information output in 3D, which means in x, y, and z coordinates, ensures essentially the most dependable degree of 3D collision avoidance”, says Tobias Bahnemann, CEO and Co-Founding father of Toposens and continues:
