This LiDAR depth sensor adopts the “Direct Time of Flight (dToF) methodology*1,” which delivers extremely correct measurement, distance decision*2, and measuring vary.
By using the proprietary dToF ranging module geared up with a Single Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD)*3 sensor, and by using a number of ranging factors for distance measurement, it may possibly precisely measure distances in three dimensions: size, width, and depth. Moreover, it may possibly additionally measure distances to low-contrast objects, objects with low reflectivity, that are harder to detect utilizing different ranging strategies.
This allows correct distance measurement in environments reminiscent of retail shops, the place varied objects, together with folks and fixtures, are anticipated. Along with its capability to precisely measure the space to things each indoors and outdoor, the sensor’s compact, light-weight design and strong aluminum housing permits it to be built-in into varied gadgets, reminiscent of meals serving robots in eating places, autonomous cellular robots in warehouses, and drones used for inspections and surveys.
*1A ranging methodology that calculates distance by measuring the time it takes for gentle to be mirrored again from an object.
*2The capability to acknowledge minute variations in distance between a number of objects.
*3An digital system (diode) that achieves excessive sensitivity by using “avalanche multiplication,” which amplifies electrons like a snow avalanche from a single incident photon.
