Sensors act as the eyes of mobile robots (AGV & AMR), enabling them to perceive their position, orientation, and environmental information. Consequently, sensor technology plays a crucial role in enabling a robot's autonomous movement.

In this episode, Tobias Freywald and Arno Hagemann from Pepperl+Fuchs answer all questions related to sensor technology. Pepperl+Fuchs is an industrial sensor manufacturer, equipping mobile robots, such as AGILOX, with various sensors, including advanced LiDAR sensors for navigation.

You will discover:

• Simple ways to explain the functioning of LiDAR sensors even to someone like your grandma.
• The increasing complexity of sensor requirements in autonomous mobile robots.
• The concept of "sensor fusion" and its immense significance.
• The importance of standards in sensor deployment, and much more.
