1. A system for forming a controlled safety area for a manipulator which system comprises a control unit being arranged to monitor the controlled safety area in order to prevent human entering to the controlled safety area to be hit by the manipulator working within the controlled safety area wherein the system comprises:
at least one laser scanner being arranged to form at least one laser scanning wall such that the controlled safety area is divided in to a high grade safety area in between the at least one laser scanning wall, and to low a grade safety area outside the at least one laser scanning wall;
at least one area detecting laser scanner arranged to detect humans at least in the low grade safety area around the high grade safety area; and wherein
the control unit is arranged to control the at least one laser scanner to form an at least one virtual door in to the at least one laser scanning wall through which a human in the low grade safety area detected by the area detecting laser scanner can safely enter from the low grade safety area to the high grade safety area.
