Reflectors
Reflectors are shown in the measuring profile as particularly reflective targets. These can
be detected by an external algorithm and used as landmarks. The recommended 983-10
reflective tape (part no. 5320565) can be obtained as an accessory from SICK AG by quot-
ing REF-DG.
The reflector marks are designed as cylindrical reflectors. Cylindrical reflector marks can be
detected from any angle.
Reflector height
The vertical size and the vertical position of the reflectors are to be chosen such that the
measurement beam is incident on the reflector even on an uneven floor. The maximum
scanning range of the NAV310 is 250 m (820.2 ft) onto reflectors. It is possible to deter-
mine the minimum reflector heights based on the characteristics of the floor and the meas-
urement distance. The measurement beam on the NAV310 increases in size by around
5 mm per metre measurement distance (see
). Tipping of the AGV due to
unevenness on the floor must be taken into account as appropriate (incl. safety supple-
ment). Recommended reflector heights are 500 mm (19.69 in) for a measurement distance
up to 30 m (98.43 ft), 750 mm (29.53 in) for a measurement distance up to 46 m (150.92
ft) and 1000 mm (39.37 in) for a measurement distance up to 70 m (229.66 ft).
