Product Introduction

LiDAR LOC is an embedded positioning software for AGVs/AMRs. Maps can be used to create usable maps based on the environmental information collected by LiDAR, and mobile positioning data for AGVs and AMRs is provided in the form of UDP data output (x, y, and deflection angles). CAD-compliant map files in *.dxf format are also available. In addition, the LiDAR LOC supports the reflector function, and the map editing software SMET (which is used together with the LiDAR LOC) can realize the functions of map creation, reflector addition, and virtual path addition. With easy access to a browser, the LiDAR LOC interface will open.

  The LiDAR LOC from SICK fulfills the requirements for a high-performance positioning solution for individual vehicle concepts. It solves many application problems, is easy to configure, and performs well. Reliable positioning solutions are the basis for driverless navigation, ensuring unimpeded material flows and are therefore a fundamental part of effective fleet management.
