| Navigation Mode | Magnetic Stripe / Ribbon-based | Laser Navigation | QR Code Navigation | QR Code Navigation (Ceiling Labels) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Module Costs | Low | High | Low | Low |
| Signpost | Magnetic stripe/ribbon | Reflector panel | QR code | Paper label |
| Modification of Site Environment | Lay magnetic stripes/ribbons (All tracks) | Installation of reflector post | Paste the QR code | Paste labels on the ceiling |
| Aisle/Storage Bin Occupation | No space occupied | Space occupied | No space occupied | No space occupied |
| Signposting Costs | High | Relatively high | Relatively good | Low |
| Route Planning Flexibility | Poor | Excellent | Fair | Excellent |
| Wear and Maintenance | Prone to wear and tear, high maintenance costs | Low wear and tear, low maintenance costs | Prone to wear and tear, high maintenance costs | Maintenance-free |
