Sensors
Obstacle/Contact Sensor
When the Robot Mower meets an obstacle, it will reverse and
change direction to avoid the obstacle. If it does not find a new
path within 3 seconds, the cutting motor stops. If it does not find
a new path within 10 seconds, the robot will shut down and it
will require a manual restart to start again.
Rain Sensor
In case of heavy rain, the Robot Mower will automatically return
to the docking station. It will automatically start working the
next day at the time originally started.
Lift Sensor
This sensor is placed close to the wheels and measures the
gravity of the wheels. If the Robot Mower is lifted manually or if
both wheels run into a hole, the robot will shut down and must
be restarted manually.
Tilt Sensor
A 6-axle sensor is integrated in the Robot Mower to measure
the tilt angle in all directions. If the tilt angle exceeds 30°,
the cutting motor will stop immediately but continue driving
(see Figure 7). If the angle decreases to less than 30° within
10 seconds, the cutting motor will restart automatically. If,
however, the angle does not decrease within 10 seconds the
mower will shut down and will require a manual restart.
