2. Product presentation
MiR1350 is an autonomous mobile robot that can transport loads up to 1350 kg
indoors within production facilities, warehouses, and other industrial locations
where access to the public is restricted.
Users operate MiR1350 via a web-based user interface, which is accessed
through a browser on a PC, smartphone, or tablet—see Connecting to the
robot interface on page60. The robot can be set up to run a fixed route, be
called on demand, or perform more complex missions.
The robot interface of MiR1350 can be accessed via Google Chrome, Google
Chromium, Apple Safari, Mozilla Firefox, and Microsoft Edge browsers.
The robot uses a map of its work area to navigate and can move to any position
on the map—see Navigation and guidance system on page85. The map can
be created or imported the first time the robot is used. While operating, the
robot avoids obstacles that are not mapped, like people and furniture.
Specifications for MiR1350 are available on the MiR website.

2.1 Main features of MiR1350
The main features of MiR1350 are:
•Driving in a populated workspace
The robot is designed to operate among people and maneuvers safely and
efficiently in highly dynamic environments.
•Overall route planning and local adjustments
The robot navigates autonomously to find the most efficient paths to its
destinations. The robot adjusts the path when it encounters obstacles that are
not on the map, like personnel and vehicles.
•Efficient transportation of heavy loads
The robot is designed to automate transportation of loads up to 1350 kg.
•Sound and light signals
The robot continuously signals with light and sounds, indicating where it will
drive and its current status, for example, waiting for a mission, driving to a
destination, or destination reached.
•User-friendly and flexible
The web-based user interface, accessed from a PC, tablet, or smartphone,
gives easy access to operation and monitoring of the robot and can be
programmed without any prior experience. Different user group levels and
tailored dashboards can be set up to suit different users.
•Alert for 'lost'
If the robot enters a situation where it is unable to find a path to its
destination, it stops, turns on the yellow-purple running error light, and a
custom defined Try/Catch action may be used to alert personnel or take other
actions—see Creating the mission Try/Catch on page206.
•Automatic deceleration for objects
The built-in sensors ensure that the robot is slowed down when obstacles are
detected in front of it.

2. Product presentation
MiR1350 User Guide (en) 05/2022 - v.1.2 ©Copyright 2021-2022: Mobile Industrial Robots A/S. 14
•Internal map
The robot can either use a floor plan from a CAD drawing, or a map can be
created by manually driving the robot around the entire site in which the robot
is going to operate. When the robot is mapping, the robot’s sensors detect
walls, doors, furniture, and other obstacles, and the robot then creates a map
based on these input. After you've finished mapping, you can add positions
and other features in the map editor—see Creating and configuring maps
on page143.
Top modules
The following top modules are available for MiR1350:
•MiRShelfLift
A lift platform can be mounted on MiR1350 enabling it to automate the
internal transport of shelves that meet specifications outlines by MiR—see
MiR1350 Shelf Lift User Guide for the shelf requirements.
•MiRPalletLift1350
A lift platform can be mounted on MiR1350 enabling it to automate the
internal transport of US standard 40×48 pallets.
•MiREUPalletLift1350
A pallet lift for EU pallets can be mounted on MiR1350 enabling it to automate
the internal transport of EU pallets.
To learn more about the top modules and accessories, go to the MiR
website.
Accessories
The following accessories are available for MiR1350:
•MiRPalletRack
Use a MiRPalletRack with MiRPalletLift1350. The lift places and picks up US
standard 40×48 in (1016×1219 mm) pallets from the rack autonomously.

•MiREUPalletRack
Use a MiREUPalletRack with MiREUPalletLift1350. The lift places and picks
up EU pallets from the rack autonomously.
•MiRFleet
MiRFleet offers centralized control of robots throughout all your facility.
MiRFleet is available as an installation file you can install on a server of your
choice or as a computer server where MiRFleet comes pre-installed.
•MiRAICamera
An intelligent camera that detects and recognizes different moving objects,
which can trigger certain actions in MiRFleet.
•MiRCharge48V
These fully automatic chargers enable MiR robots to recharge their batteries.
Together with MiRFleet, charging of robots can be fully automated, ensuring
that robots never run out of power during missions.
