To enhance the autonomous capabilities of Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) without increasing production costs, we propose a novel 2D-Lidar mirror combination with a main focus on the calibration procedure and the resulting performance figures. This approach leverages precise calibration to enhance the robot's perception without the necessity of adding costly sensors such as 3D-Lidars, thereby maintaining affordability while simultaneously increasing the effectiveness of 2D-Lidar sensors.}, language = {en} }
