Abstract: The present invention discloses a mobile unit, an inventory management system, and a method for mobile unit localization. Sensors are immovably disposed in the workplace, actively identifying the positions of the mobile units. The individual sensor disposed in the workplace can monitor the positions of a plurality of mobile units simultaneously, and the number of sensors is only related to the size of workspace, which is independent of the number of mobile units. Since no complicated position calculations are needed for the mobile units, it reduces the requirements for on-board processors, which is more advantageous to monitor the preexisting non-automated vehicles or retrofit them into automated vehicles. With the method of the present invention, position calculations are not carried out on the bodies of AGVs, the requirements for the on-board controllers of AGVs are low, and it is easier to retrofit the non-intelligent mobile units, and thereby position monitoring and autonomous operation are implemented.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for monitoring a network status of a Zigbee node. The method includes: acquiring a value of a status tag configured on the Zigbee node, the value of the status tag indicating a current network status of the Zigbee node; and determining that the value of the status tag equals a first preset value and a preset condition associated with the status tag is met. The first preset value indicates that the Zigbee node has joined a Zigbee coordinator but has not joined a gateway. The method also includes: in response to determining that the value of the status tag equals the first preset value and the preset condition is met, restarting the Zigbee node and resetting the value of the status tag to an initial value. The initial value indicates that the Zigbee node has not joined the Zigbee coordinator.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a safety protection method of dynamic detection for mobile robots. The mobile robot is provided with a sensor. Said sensor obtains the obstacle information in the detection areas in front of a mobile robot, and the mobile robot is caused to progressively slow down and dynamically adjust the detection area when an obstacle appears in the detection area. If no obstacle is detected in the detection area after adjusting, then the mobile robot is caused to keep on moving, and if an obstacle is still detected in the detection area after adjusting, then the mobile robot is caused to keep on decelerating until they are stopped. The sensor sets different detection areas according to the traveling speed and traveling direction of the mobile robot, or presets the detection area according to the path and dynamically adjusts it when the mobile robot is running.
