Grid-based navigation (Glossary)

Industry and Factory 4.0 Automation Digital transformation Robots Sanjay Sauldie Glossary

Grid-based navigation is particularly at home in the fields of Industry and Factory 4.0, automation and robots. It describes a method in which robots or automated vehicles orientate and move in an environment using an invisible grid.

Imagine a modern warehouse: Nothing is visible to the human eye on the floor, but thanks to software, the robot knows exactly how the warehouse is divided into small square fields - in other words, a "grid". Using this grid-based navigation, it can quickly and efficiently calculate the best route from point A to point B, for example to retrieve a product from the shelf.

The advantage of this navigation is that obstacles and paths can be clearly defined and flexibly rerouted. If an aisle is blocked or a storage rack is moved, the system updates the grid and the robots immediately find new routes.

Grid-based navigation makes production processes leaner, safer and more efficient - an important component of automation in modern industry.
