3.5
Brake test
A brake test should be performed to ensure, that the field of view is satisfactory according to the following:
1.
Add maximum load the robot will be driving with.
2.
Find the worst-case area for making the brake test (e.g. on a decline).
3.
Drive full speed with the joystick toward an object (cardboard box or similar).
4.
Measure the distance from the front of the robot to the object it was driving toward.
If the distance between the object and the robot is 20 cm or above, the brake test is completed and safe.
3.6
Inclines / Declines: are they within specifications?
Check all inclines and declines to ensure they are within the specifications for robots listed in section 3.1. The
specifications can be
found under Specifications on MiR’s website
.
3.7
Evaluation of the environment and recommendations
Evaluate the environment that the robots are going to operate in, and if any recommendations are given,
document them here. Pay special attention to the floor conditions.
Example:
There is a leak in a water pipe or there is an area with tools lying on the floor: it needs to be handled before the
robot can drive properly.
