temporarily locks the area in the narrow doorway. This prevents MiR robots from
obstructing the doorway for incoming traffic and avoids MiR robots attempting to pass an
obstructed doorway. Instead, MiR robots wait at a reasonable distance to allow the other
object or person through first.
If a MiR robot is already in the narrow doorway, MiR AI Camera will not make
the robot stop in the middle of the doorway when it locks the doorway area.
MiR AI Camera can also be configured only to lock the doorway area after detecting certain
objects. For example, if the doorway is large enough to allow a person and robot through at
the same time, it should be considered only to set MiR AI Camera to lock the area if carts or
other robots are approaching the doorway.
Autonomously initiating robot missions
MiR AI Camera can be mounted to focus on an area where the presence of a specific object
triggers a fleet mission. This can, for example, be used at any pick-up and drop-off position
where, if the object is detected, a MiR robot will arrive and transport the object to a drop-off
point. It is important in this case that the position occupies most of the camera's field of
view. This is to avoid the camera detecting the object of interest in other positions and
initializing a mission even though the object is not necessarily placed on the pick-up position.
