2. Product presentation
MiR AICamera is intended to be used to improve the workflow of MiR robots. It provides
MiR Fleet with additional information that it can use to guide MiR robots more effectively,
for example by initiating missions when carts are ready to be transported or by avoiding
sending robots through obstructed, narrow doorways and into crowded areas.
In MiR Fleet, the camera is set up to trigger a specific action when the camera detects a
certain object. The actions can either be the initialization of a fleet mission or locking a
Limit-robots zone.
Figure 2.1. When the AIcamera detects a trigger object, it sends a signal to MiR Fleet. MiR Fleet then either
locks a Limit-robots zone or schedules a mission.

configuration for MiR Fleet.
•Ensure that port 1908 in your network is open and free for the AI camera to use.
•MiR AI Camera should be in the same physical location as MiR Fleet.
•A minimum bandwidth of 1 Mbit per AIcamera with a maximum latency of 150 mS.
