ELOKON has launched the ELOshield module for driverless transport vehicles such as automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots (AMRs).
With ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless sensors that offer a 360-degree range of up to 82 feet, the module prevents collisions between these small and often overlooked vehicles in warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturing plants and forklifts equipped with the ELOshield forklift safety and pedestrian detection system.
The radio-based module acts as a stand-alone antenna that can be installed on material handling vehicles due to the module’s small size (3.3in x 2in x0.8in).
