SLAMTEC RPLiDAR A1M8 360 Degree Laser Range Finder 6m (Radius Range)

SLAMTEC RPLiDAR A1M8 360 Degree Laser Range Finder 6m (Radius Range) is a low-cost 360-degree 2D laser scanner (LIDAR) solution developed by SLAMTEC. The system can perform a 360-degree scan within a 6-meter range. The produced 2D point cloud data can be used in mapping, localization, and object/environment modeling.

RPLIDAR A1’s scanning frequency reached 5.5 Hz when sampling 360 points each round. And it can be configured up to 10 Hz maximum. RPLIDAR A1 is basically a laser triangulation measurement system. It can work excellently in all kinds of indoor and outdoor environments without sunlight.

Features:

• Measuring distance: Up to 6 meters (Radius).
• Measures distance data in more than 8000 times/s.
• 360 Degree Omnidirectional Laser Range Scanning.
• 8000 times sample rate, the highest in the current economical LIDAR industry.
• OPTMAG Original Design, prolong the lifespan.
• Configurable Scan Rate from 2-10Hz.
• Ideal for Robot Navigation and Localization.
• Plug and Play.
