Supernode collaborates with AMS Osram to achieve precise obstacle avoidance for robotic vacuum cleaners through Belago infrared LED technology;

Thanks to Belago's excellent infrared fill light function, the robotic vacuum cleaner can greatly enhance its ability to recognize objects and achieve precise obstacle avoidance;

The Belago dot matrix lighting fixture adopts a mini package, compatible with standard lead-free reflow process, and suitable for various 3D sensing platforms, including mobile devices, IoT devices, and robots.

Shanghai, China, November 14, 2024- AMS, a leading global optical solutions provider, announced today that it has partnered with Supernode, a leading domestic provider of multi industry 3D vision solutions, to launch a home sweeping robot solution using advanced Belago infrared LEDs from AMS. This collaboration significantly enhances the visual recognition capabilities of robots, bringing revolutionary progress to the fields of home cleaning and industrial service robots.

The navigation system is the core component of the robotic vacuum cleaner, equivalent to the "nerve center", responsible for collecting environmental information, determining its own positioning, and performing path planning functions. The sweeping robot solution jointly launched by both parties is equipped with the AMS Osram Belago 1.2 Dot Pattem LLLuminator infrared LED, which has excellent infrared fill light function and can provide dot matrix and infrared fill light on textured objects (such as white walls). The Belago emitter generates about 5000 dots at a wavelength of 940nm, and the stereo matching algorithm can use these dot matrix patterns to process these low texture situations and achieve high-precision depth maps. Another advantage of the dot matrix pattern is that it can reduce the computational load required for depth calculation.

The application of Belago significantly improves the object recognition ability of robotic vacuum cleaners, enabling them to accurately avoid obstacles and efficiently plan cleaning paths.

The Belago dot matrix lighting fixture adopts a mini package and is compatible with standard lead-free reflow technology, which can be widely used in various 3D sensing platforms including mobile devices, IoT devices, and robots. In addition, Belago LED meets human eye safety standards to ensure safe use.

With the help of multiple Belago infrared LEDs, the visual recognition solution can achieve a maximum recognizable distance of 60-70m under strong light. These technological advantages make Belago not only suitable for household sweeping robots, but also provide broader application prospects for industrial service robots such as AGV (Automated Guided Vehicles) and unmanned service robots.

Richard Qin, Sales Channel Manager of AMS Osram China, said, "With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and robotics technology, the home cleaning robot market is showing a thriving trend. By perfectly combining AMS Osram's advanced technology in optoelectronic devices with Supernode's deep accumulation of innovative technology in 3D visual perception, we will jointly promote the improvement of the intelligence level of robotic vacuum cleaners and bring consumers a smarter and more convenient cleaning experience. We look forward to deepening cooperation with Supernode in more fields in the future to jointly promote technological progress

Liu Xiaotao, CEO of HyperNode Innovation Technology, said, "With its leading position in the field of intelligent sensors and relentless pursuit of product quality, AMS Osram has provided our robotic vacuum cleaner with excellent visual recognition capabilities. The high-density dot matrix and infrared fill light function of Belago infrared LED not only improve the obstacle avoidance accuracy of our product, but also greatly enhance its navigation ability in complex environments. We look forward to further cooperation with AMS Osram to jointly promote technological innovation in the fields of smart homes and industrial automation

Yang Jingkun, Senior Product Manager of Shenzhen Zhongdian Port Technology Co., Ltd., said, "From the development trend of home cleaning robots, obstacle avoidance is expected to become another standard feature after LiDAR navigation technology. The Belago infrared LED of AMS Osram performs well in improving the visual recognition effect of robots, providing strong technical support for obstacle avoidance of floor cleaning robots and industrial service robots. We hope to further cooperate with AMS Osram in more technical fields in the future, and provide more cost-effective solutions with obstacle avoidance function for the industry

The collaboration between AMS Osram and Supernode will not only drive the advancement of home sweeping robot technology, but also open up new possibilities for the future field of industrial service robots. Both parties will continue to devote themselves to technological innovation and application expansion, providing customers with more intelligent and efficient solutions.
