◆ About moving to a Map Point
[Destination specification movement] is a function that automatically moves ugo to the Map Point specified on the map.
・When you specify the Map Point from the operation screen, ugo automatically determines the optimal route and moves to the selected point.
・It is also possible to automatically move to a Map Point that you have registered in advance.
◆ How to use the feature on the operation screen
Click on the mini-map displayed in the top left corner of the operation screen.
Click the mini-map to display the map on the operation screen.
When the map is displayed, double-click the location you want to move to (the destination) (a red dot will appear).
When you specify a destination, the coordinates of the point and a [Move] button will be displayed in the bottom right of the screen.
Ugo will start moving when you press the [Move] button.
If a Map Point has been registered in advance, you can move there by selecting the [Map Point icon] and pressing the [Move] button.
◆ How to use the feature on the map editor
Open the Map Editor from the Operation Screen .
Once you have opened the Map Editor , click on the Map Points tab on the right side of the screen.
Click the [Edit] button at the bottom of the [Map Points List] to change to Edit Mode.
In edit mode, you can register a Map Point by double-clicking any point.
Also, by clicking the "+" button to the right of the [Map Points] list on the right side of the screen, ugo's current location will be registered as a Map Point.
After selecting a registered Map Point by left-clicking,
you can adjust its position by dragging it, and rotate it with the [E] and [R] keys.
You can change the name, delete, duplicate, or perform a test run from the Map Point List.
Once you have finished editing, be sure to click the [Update] button to save your settings/changes.

◆ Precautions and restrictions for use
Pre-execution self-location
Please use the device under the assumption that the device's self-position is correct.
If the device is at the origin on the map immediately after starting the device or if the self-position is incorrect,
adjust it manually from the map editor or use the [Map Patrol Position Initialization] command to align the self-position before using the device.
Travel to your Map Point
When moving to a destination, use the [Move to specified Destination] function, the operation during driving is as follows:
・If there is an obstacle on the way, it will automatically avoid it.
・The maximum moving speed is about 1.4km/h.
・It will drive safely by referring to the settings of [No entry zone] and [Speed limit zone]
About [Route Specified Movement]
About [Zone Settings]
Map Point location
Since the robot is designed to slow down and avoid obstacles while maintaining a distance of at least 50cm (approximately 30cm for the Mini),
if the goal waypoint is too close to a wall or obstacle, it may not be able to complete the movement and may stop with an error.
When setting a Map Point, be sure to set the goal waypoint at least 50cm (approximately 30cm for the Mini) away from any walls or obstacles.
There will be no issues as long as you set it such that it does not enter the green area on the [Cost Map].
About [Cost Map]
Route to Map Point
When you specify a Map Point, the shortest route from your current location to the Map Point is determined from map information and automatically generated on the spot.
Therefore, depending on the surrounding conditions and the location of obstacles, the same route may not always be taken, even when traveling from the same location.
If you want to always travel the same route, set and operate [Route Specified Movement] in combination with waypoints.
About [Route Specified Movement]
Map position correction
When using the [Move to specified destination] function , be sure to enable [Auto Localization] .
Please note that if auto-localization is turned off while moving, the robot will stop with an error because it cannot maintain its accurate position and it is dangerous.
