5pcs Low Cost 360 Degree Laser Range Scanner A1M8

Description:
RPLIDAR A1 is a low cost 360 degree 2D laser scanner (LIDAR) solution developed by SLAMTEC. The system can perform 360degree scan within 6meter 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 excellent in all kinds of indoor environment and outdoor environment without sunlight.

Measures distance data in more than 8000 times/s

The sample rate of LIDAR directly decides whether the robot can map quickly and accurately.
RPLIDAR improves the internal optical design and algorithm system to make the sample rate up to 8000 times, which is the highest in the current economical LIDAR industry.

OPTMAG Original Design

Most traditional non-solid LIDARs use slip ring to transfer power and data information, however, they only
have thounds of hours of life due to mechanical wearing out. Slamtec has integrated the wireless power
and optical communication technology to self-design the OPTMAG technology, which breakouts the life limitation
of traditional LIDAR system. It fixes the electrical connecttion failure caused by the physical wearing out so as to prolong the life-span.

Configurable Scan Rate from 2-10Hz

Users can adjust the scan rate by alternating the motor PWM signal

Ideal for Robot Navigation and Localization

RPLIDAR is the designed sensor for applying SLAM algorithm

Plug and Play

Just connecting the RPLIDAR and a computer via a micro USB cable,
users can use the RPLIDAR without any coding job

Application Scenarios

The RPLIDAR A1 can be used in the following application scenarios:
