How to create a Beam Sensor in 3DX DELMIA Robotics

This video demonstrates how you can create a simple beam sensor that can be used to trigger a robot emergency stop.


  • The output signal of the beam sensor signal is connected to the input emergency stop signal of the robot
  • When the output signal of the beam sensor toggles true, the input emergency stop signal will toggle to true
  • When the emergency stop signal is true, then the robot task will pause
  • The hand of the manikin breaks the beam sensor to pause the robot
  • When the hand of the manikin moves out of the range of the beam sensor, then the robot task will continue
