Magnetic Guide Sensor with Angle Measurement Enhances Mobile Robots Path Following

Unlike traditional magnetic line-following sensors that only detect position along a single dimension, the MTS160's unique angle detection allows robots to assess the curvature of the track. This enables the robot to distinguish between minor trajectory adjustments needed on straight paths and more proactive steering for navigating curves.
