Sonair says ADAR One was assessed as a human detection sensor according to the IEC 61496 standard for electrosensitive protection devices. The post Sonair ADAR One 3D ultrasonic sensor is now safety-certified appeared first on The Robot Report .
The increasing deployment of autonomous systems in industrial and logistics settings necessitates robust safety standards and certifications to ensure human-robot collaboration.
Safety certification for advanced sensor technology is a critical enabler for wider adoption of autonomous systems, particularly in environments shared with humans.
The availability of safety-certified 3D ultrasonic sensors makes it easier to design and deploy robotic systems that meet stringent international safety standards, accelerating their integration into various industries.

- · Labor-intensive manual processes
- · Companies offering non-certified, less reliable sensing solutions
The new certification directly reduces the barrier to entry for deploying ADAR One sensors in safety-critical robotics applications.
This will likely lead to an acceleration in the development and adoption of safer, more perceptive autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) in factories and warehouses.
Increased safety and efficiency in industrial automation could drive further investment into advanced robotics, potentially impacting global supply chain resilience and manufacturing competitiveness.
