The mobile robot MP-500 (and all varieties and models based on it) is an autonomous robot vehicle for a wide range of applications.

Its differential drive with two big drive wheels provides high manoeuvrability on different surfaces and exact, efficient runs across longer distances. Measurement data from the laser scanner can be used for localisation, navigation and collision avoidance. This scanner also monitors different user-defined safety fields in front of the robot. As soon as an object is detected within the currently activated field, the robot is immediately set to emergency stop.

These features enable the robot to exactly determine its current position within the working area, to plan paths to arbitrary positions and to safely avoid collisions with passers-by or other dynamic obstacles.

Additional components and systems can be mounted onto and into the robot. They can be powered by the robot’s internal power supply and can be controlled by the on-board computer.
