Selection Criteria for an Industrial Grade 3D Vision System for AMR Obstacle Detection

The increasing demand for online commerce has led to greater demand for autonomous vehicles in the logistics sector. In this Tech Talk, Mark Davidson, DreamVu CRO, compares the performance of four different technologies which provide obstacle detection for autonomous forklifts on multiple metrics which are important for selection of an ideal 3D sensor for obstacle avoidance. We have assembled these criteria based on learnings from our industrial customers. We show the advantages and disadvantages of various sensor technologies. We also show results and testing metrics in very difficult scenarios present in a warehouse.
