INSTAR Robotics integrates SICK MRS1000 into Trooper
SICK documented its MRS1000 3D LiDAR as the navigation and environment-perception sensor on INSTAR Robotics Trooper.
Evidence notes
- The MRS1000 supplies four-layer 3D LiDAR data for Trooper navigation and environment perception.
- Trooper handles potted-plant spacing in greenhouses, tunnels and outdoor nursery beds.
- The platform is rated for a 30 kg payload and 150–200 pots per hour, depending on container size.
Company context
INSTAR Robotics develops autonomous mobile robots for commercial horticulture. Its French-built Trooper handles the spacing, regrouping and movement of potted plants in nurseries and greenhouses, reducing repetitive manual work while operating indoors or outside.
