▣    Features

•  StarGazer™ analyzes infrared ray image which is reflected from a passive landmark with an independent ID. The output of position and heading angle of a robot is given with very precise resolution and high speed.

•  Landmark is attached to the ceiling in thin paper made from reflective materials.

•  IR Projector and image interpretation module shoot out infrared rays to wide area of ceiling.

•  No need for separate communication for Sync or Identity exchanges between the robot and its landmark.

•  If the robot is driving on a large area, such as a large living room, or several rooms or offices, it can be solved by attaching an additional landmark.

•  Rooms are easily distinguished by labeling landmarks with different unique IDs.

•  Auto calibration makes it easy for average users such as housewives to measure distance between landmarks regardless of the height of the ceiling.

•  Landmark need not be powered up and easily expanded to a larger area with very little additional cost to expand it.

▣    How it works

•  The IR projector in StarGazer™ shoots off infrared rays at the Landmark on the ceiling.

•  And then, the landmark points reflects back the rays to the StarGazer™ on top of a robot.

•  At the same time, the reflected infrared rays turns into an image by CMOS Sensor Array of StarGazer™

•  Through a digital image processing, StarGazer™ calculates the position and angle of a robot by analyzing the acquired image.

•  HLD3-L : Applied to a ceiling height range of 4.5 m to 6.5 m.

▣    Notes

•  The 3X3 landmark is composed of 31 ID's and has no functional differences except 4x4 Landmark and ID numbers (4,095).

•  HLD1-S and HLD1-L are the method of removing and leaving only the seat on the back side, while the seats fitted with HLD2-S, HLD2-L, HLD3-S, HLD3-L are the attached sheet.

•  For StarGazer™ and StarGazer™ RS1.0 models, landmarks must be purchased separately.

•  The 3X3 Landmark is composed of 31 IDs. To use more than 31 items in one location, purchase them as a 4x4 landmark.
