Read Article →The TF03 can measure obstacle distances up to 180m at 1cm resolution. Comes with RS232/485 output for easy integration with microcontroller/PLC and Computers. Suitable for Robotics, Autonomous Vehicles, UAVs, Permiter Detection and all general-purpose obstacle avoidance applications.
Lidar stands for “Light Detection and Ranging.” It is an active remote sensing technology, that measures the time it takes for each laser pulse to bounce back from an obstacle to calculate the distance.
TF03 -180 is an Industrial-Grade long-range LiDAR based on the pulsed ToF (time of flight) principle and it is designed for the Long range up to 180m with a unique design of the optical system and the signal processing circuit it offers improved detection performance in a compact size. In addition, the product meets the IP67 rating for dust and water protection making it suitable for outdoor and industrial environments. It Optimizes various compensation algorithms, with unique optics, electricity, and algorithms to achieve stability, precision, sensitivity, and high-speed distance measurement. It can work under a strong light environment and rain, fog, and snow conditions. TF03-180 applies to the terrain-following of drones, the collision avoidance of cars, intelligent transportation, and industrial safety warnings.
The sensor can output up to 1000 readings per second. It can detect points up to 180m with an accuracy of 1% and has a narrow FoV of 0.5°.
It operates on 5-24V and can connect to a microcontroller, PLC, and computer through an RS232/485 interface. Please go through the development manual under the Technical Details Tab for the detailed commands and responses by the sensor.
Benewake also provides GUI software for testing and using the sensor. The software can display live sensor readings, log readings, and debug messages. Use this software as a plug-and-play option to test and evaluate the sensor for your application.
