Logistics Robot Sensing Module is used as an overall term for different kinds of sensor inputs. Sensing Modules can process output signals from sensors that are needed for example to monitor the surrounding of a logistics robot, determine its own position or the position of an object that the robot is supposed to grab or as well to force shutdowns in critical situations. Typical sensors or transmitters used in an logistics robotic system are displacement transmitter.

This refers to the more generic term Machine Vision.
