NaviFloor®
Keeping track of robots in enclosed spaces is no easy task. NaviFloor® is an RFID floor for
robot navigation. It provides a way of placing invisible landmarks on a floor using RFID tags. RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification.
These tags use an electromagnetic field to retrieve or store information. Since they are passive devices, they do not require
a power supply. Robotic vehicles or other moving objects only need an RFID reader and map loaded in the controller to indicate
the position of the tags in the floor. Equipped in this way, the robot can determine its exact position whenever the reader comes within range of a tag.
The NaviFloor® RFID underlay is delivered in rolls of 50 meters length. It comes including a mapping of the embedded RFID tags,
simplifying the installation. The NaviFloor® RFID impact sound insulating underlay is suitable for installation beneath all kind
of elastic flooring, laminate or parquet. The NaviFloor® RFID reinforcement fabric (patent pending) is specially developed for installation beneath
artificial resin or terrazzo flooring (> www.barit.de), tiles or elastic flooring.
It is pressure-resitant up to 45N/mm² and withstands even fork lift trucks.
