General introduction: AGV or Robot AGV (English: Automation Guided Vehicle) is a vehicle specifically designed to be used in the transportation of goods, finished products, materials, etc., in an automatic form.

Navigation technology by Data Matrix and QR code of SICK sensor

Following the development trend of industry 4.0, 2D code-based navigation technology combined with anti-collision safe lasers is the current and future trend of smart solutions for AGV vehicles.

GLS6 – Sick Sensor, a new product that integrates many advanced features, is currently being used by many machine manufactureres and some corporations in navigating AGV vehicles in factories and in-house warehouses.

Outstanding features of GLS6 – Sensor SICK

Read Data Matrix or QR Code data
Determine the position of X, Y coordinates and deflection angle to help the vehicle align when moving (GLS6 code reading helps the car detect the absolute spatial position and relative position of the vehicle relative to the code at the same time)
The device automatically adjusts the focus position for the most effective code reading according to the working distance
Compact design with flexible swivel cable connector, the GLS6 can be mounted in confined spaces, integrating into any AGV vehicle currently on the market
Reliable data reading of Data matrix or QR code even at the traveling speed of 5 m/s of AGV vehicle
On uneven workshop and warehouse floors… the GLS6 sensor can still read the Code reliably
The Lables code can be adjusted to suit the needs of the customer (can use Sick’s code or use customer’s code)
