O3M151 3D Smart Sensor Object Detection
12
Attachment on vehicle
Automatic object tracking is also suitable for somewhat difficult and/or rough terrain� It recognises the next
20 objects (adjustable) next to the vehicle and passes on information such as the distance, size and posi-
tion of each object to the machine controller�
The
Object Detection
function enables area monitoring by attaching the Smart Sensor to a vehicle�
►
Mount the Smart Sensor tilted downward on the vehicle�
►
Set the mounting position values in the ifm Vision Assistant operating software�
5.1.3 Parametrisation
There is a separate template/wizard for area monitoring (

ifm Vision Assistant Programming
Manual)
Object detection range (height)
A minimal and a maximal object detection height can be defined�
●
The minimal height provides for a clear separation between the floor and the objects�
●
The maximal height limits the object recognition in the height (height-adjustable objects)�
> The minimal height (Zmin) should be set to 0,5 m and the maximal height (Zmax) should correspond
to the vehicle height plus a tolerance (~20 cm)�
Frame rate
►
Set the frame rate to 33 Hz�
Object detection type
►
Set the Object Detection parameter to "Standard Mode"� (Parameter ObjectListCust_objectDetection-
Variant=0)
If a distinction is to be made between normal objects and objects with retro reflectors, the parameter
ObjectListCust_objectDetectionVariant=1 can be set�
►
Set noise suppression filter to "Level 2"�
If the load on the CAN bus is too great, it can be reduced with the setting CAN output cycle Modulo
(→ Operating instructions).
