Lidar stands for “Light Detection and Ranging.” It is an active remote sensing technology, meaning it sends out pulses of energy, and then reads the reflected return of that energy, to gather information about the world around it. Lidar uses the light detection technique to calculate depth. It measures the time it takes for each laser pulse to bounce back from an obstacle. This pulsed laser measurement creates 2D or 3D models (a point cloud).LIDAR Sensors are high-performance distance sensors offering long-range distance sensing, high resolution & accuracy in readings, long life, smaller size, and digital interface.LIDAR sensors use multiple technologies to calculate the obstacle distance, such as time of flight, pulsed array emitters, etc.
YDLiDAR TG50 is a 360° 2D LiDAR that uses the ToF principle, it is designed to rotate 360° and continuously output the point cloud data of the scanning environment. It includes unique optics, electricity, and algorithms to achieve stability, precision, sensitivity, and high-speed distance measurement techniques to achieve high-precision laser distance measurement and output high frame rate ranging data. It can detect points up to 50m and an angle resolution of 0.22°.
It operates on 5V and can connect to a microcontroller, PLC, and computer through a UART interface. Please review the development manual under the Downloads Tab for detailed manuals and the sensor's commands and responses.
YDLIDAR provides evaluation software, Point Cloud Viewer, to test and use 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.
Linux SDK is available to write your custom code.
LiDAR is used alongside other sensors such as cameras and RADAR for mapping, object detection and identification, and navigation as they are relatively independent of varying lighting conditions
