Chapter 1: Introduction

This manual covers the setup, operation, and user maintenance of an LD Platform.

Other than the basics, this manual does not cover configuration performed using the software

that comes with the platform. That is covered in the Mobile Robot Software Suite User's Guide.

Definitions

Platform: The most basic part of the robot. It includes the chassis, drive assemblies, sus-

pension, wheels, battery, lasers, sonar, an on-board LD platform core with a built-in gyroscope,

software needed to navigate, connectors for interfacing with and powering the payload struc-

ture, and the platform covers.

Payload Structure: Anything you attach to the platform. This could be as simple as a box for

holding parts or documents that you want transported, or as complicated as a robotic arm that

will be used to pick up parts to transport.

LDPlatform: Either the LD-60 or LD-90 platform for 60 or 90 kg payloads.

AIV (Autonomous Intelligent Vehicle):An Omron Adept mobile robot with a payload structure

attached to it. This is your complete mobile robot, which will transport your products, parts, or

data.

When referring to the initial setup, configuration, and connections, we will refer to the plat-

form.

When talking about controlling or monitoring the full mobile robot, with a payload structure

attached, we will refer to the AIV.

Fleet:Two or more AIVs operating in the same workspace.

Enterprise Manager 1100:A system that manages a fleet of AIVs. This includes the Enterprise

Manager appliance and the software that runs on it.

1.1 Product Description

The LD platform is a general-purpose, mobile robot platform, designed for working indoors

and around people. It is self-guided and self-charging, with an automated docking station. The

LD platform is available in two versions, designed to carry loads up to 60 kg (132 lb)for the

LD-60 and 90 kg (198 lb) for the LD-90 platform. Where appropriate, differences between the

models are called out. Otherwise, this manual applies to both platforms.

The platform combines hardware and mobile-robotics software to provide an intelligent,

mobile platform to transport your payload. The platform comes complete with the ability to

know where it is within a workspace, and to navigate safely and autonomously to any access-

ible destination within that workspace, continuously and without human intervention.

Its primary guidance uses a laser to navigate, comparing the laser readings to a digital map

stored on the platform. The laser is backed up by a low front laser, two rear-facing sonar pairs,

a front bumper, a gyroscope mounted on the LD platform core, and encoders and Hall sensors

on each drive wheel.

Chapter 1: Introduction

For situations that are so dynamic that laser localization becomes difficult, we offer the Acuity

Localization option, which localizes the platform using an upward-facing camera to recognize

overhead lighting patterns. This is covered in detail in the LDPlatform Peripherals Guide. This

would apply to areas where objects, such as pallets or carts, are moved so frequently that they

can’t be mapped, or where they block the laser’s view of the mapped features.

For most applications, you will want to customize the platform with a payload structure,

attached to the top of the platform, for some combination of picking up, transporting, and drop-

ping off your parts, samples, or documents. Refer to Payload Structures on page 51 for

guidelines on designing a payload structure.

The platform provides a variety of interfaces and power connections to support your applic-

ation-specific sensors and accessories, mounted on your payload structure. Refer to Con-

nectivity on page 59, for information on the available connectors on the platform.

Body and Drive

The LD platforms are relatively small, lightweight, and highly maneuverable. They have a

strong aluminum chassis and solid construction that make them very durable. They have an

IPrating of IP40.

Each platform is a two-wheel, differential-drive vehicle, with spring-loaded passive casters

front and rear, and independent drive-wheel spring-suspension for balance. Its solid, foam-

filled wheels are at the mid-line of the platform, so that the platform can turn in place.

What's Included - Basic Components

lOne fully-assembled LD platform

The platform includes a navigation laser, front bumper with low front laser, and two

rear-facing sonar pairs. Each pair is one transmitter and one receiver.

lLD Platform Core, which includes an integrated computer, running Advanced Robotics

Automation Management (ARAM) and a microcontroller with MARC firmware. It also

runs the SetNetGo OS. The core is housed inside the platform.

ARAM and MARC firmware and the SetNetGo OS are pre-loaded on the LD platform

core.

A gyroscope is mounted on the core, and each drive wheel has an encoder and a Hall

sensor to complement the navigation laser.

lOne battery

This is shipped separately from the platform, due to air shipping regulations.

lOperator Panel

This includes a screen, an E-Stop button, ON and OFF buttons, a brake-release button,

and a keyswitch, which can be locked, and key removed, in either position. This will

usually be mounted on the user-designed and -built payload structure.

An optional touchscreen is available. See Touchscreen on page 134.
