Marvelmind Super Beacon
£103.73
This is the all new super beacon that can act as both a mobile or stationary beacon and can receive and transmit ultrasonic pulses. Making it a single device that can be used with any marvelmind positioning system architecture depending on your setup/needs.
Features
- Marvelmind Super-Beacon (19kHz, 25kHz, 31kHz, 37kHz, 45kHz)
- More sensitive, than Beacon HW v4.9
- Dual-use beacon: Receive and Transmit ultrasonic pulses
- Work both as stationary and as mobile
- Receive several ultrasonic frequencies at once
- Works with regular Beacons HW v4.9, Mini-RX and Industrial-RX
- Used for autonomous robots, vehicles, and drones
The Marvelmind Super-Beacon is a beacon for Marvelmind precise Indoor positioning and navigation system. It can work both as stationary and as mobile.
The system is used for autonomous robots, vehicles, drones, and people as well as for industrial applications requiring precise positioning and localization indoor.
The Super-Beacon can receive any ultrasonic frequency from the bands: 19kHz, 25kHz, 31kHz, 37kHz, 45kHz. The filter can be simply selected in the Dashboard. At the same time, the ultrasonic frequency of Beacon HW v4.9 is HW-defined by ultrasonic sensors and can’t be changed.
Specifications
Distance between beacons
- Reaches up to 50 meters in lab conditions
- Recommended distance is up to 30 meters (RX4 to RX4)
- Range of stable tracking of Super-Beacon + Super-Beacon is 20-50% bigger than the range of Beacon HW v4.9 + Beacon HW v4.9 in the same conditions
Coverage area
- Reaches up to 1,000 m2 with the Starter Set configurations
- Coverage for larger territories is similar to cellular networks
Location precision
- Absolute: 1–3% of the distance to the beacons
- Differential precision: ±2 cm
- Differential precision is on par or better than in the Beacon HW v4.9, partially
Location update rate
Non-Inverse Architecture:
- 0.05–25 Hz
- Can be set manually or in automatic mode
- Depends on the distance between the mobile and stationary beacons
- Depends on the number of mobile beacons
- Depends on the radio interface profile (500 kbps vs. 38 kbps)
Inverse Architecture:
- 0.05–25 Hz. Future SW releases are planned to support IMU fusion that will enable an update rate of up to 100 Hz
- Can be set manually or in automatic mode
- Depends on the distance between the mobile and stationary beacons
- Doesn’t directly depend on the number of mobile beacons – all of them are receiving
- Depends on the radio interface profile
Power supply and battery lifetime
Internal:
- LiPo battery 1000 mAh
- Battery lifetime totally depends on usage
- Receiving beacon mode with 8 Hz update rate and 10m-sub-maps => up to 30h
- Transmitting beacon with 1/10 Hz update rate => several months
- Future power saving features may increase battery life to 1year and more
External:
micro USB – recommended for permanent use
