The Cygbot CygLiDAR D2 is now accessible at SparkFun Electronics! Additionally, make sure you take a look at our new Raspberry Pi {Hardware} Equipment, Rain Gauge, and different new merchandise this week!
Hey everybody and welcome again to a different Friday Product Submit right here at SparkFun Electronics, and you understand what meaning? New Merchandise! This week we have now a motley crew of electronics and we begin off with the brand new CygLiDAR D2 from Cygbot, a solid-state dual-mode ToF LiDAR sensor. After that we have now a brand new Raspberry Pi {hardware} equipment to raised help all your HATs and pHATs, a brand new Rain Gauge and mounting arm, after which a brand new spool of solder wick (yellow). We now have a bit to get by means of at this time, so lets bounce in and take a more in-depth look!
Cygbot CygLiDAR D2
SEN-26817
Cygbot’s CygLiDAR D2 is a compact, solid-state dual-mode ToF LiDAR sensor able to producing each 2D vary maps and 3D level cloud information. With no transferring components, the D2 gives excessive sturdiness in vibration-prone or harsh indoor environments. Its light-weight design and vast subject of view make it well-suited for integration into space-constrained programs reminiscent of drones, AMRs, or industrial automation platforms.
The CygLiDAR D2 encompasses a 120° horizontal subject of view in each 2D and 3D modes and a 65° vertical subject of view for 3D information acquisition. The 2D mode gives a detection vary of as much as 8 m and operates at a body fee of 20 Hz, whereas the 3D mode gives a variety of as much as 2 m utilizing Dynamic Vary Mode (DRM) and operates at 10 Hz. 2D angular decision is 0.75°, and 3D depth decision is output at 160×60 pixels. Depth accuracy is specified at
Raspberry Pi Hat {Hardware} Equipment
PRT-29327
Effortlessly mount any customary Pi HAT onto your Raspberry Pi 3, 4, or 5, even with a cumbersome cooling fan or warmth sink put in. This {hardware} equipment gives every thing you want for a clear {and professional} meeting. The tall 2×20 pin feminine GPIO header lifts your HAT, creating important clearance over on-board parts. In the meantime, the equipment additionally contains 4 sturdy 16mm aluminum hex standoffs and eight M2.5 Philips head machine screws.
Rain Gauge
SEN-28867
A rain gauge, as you’ll have guessed, measures rainfall. The rain gauge is a self-emptying bucket-type rain gauge which prompts a momentary button closure for every 0.011″ (0.2794mm) of rain which might be collected. The closure of the momentary swap will be measured utilizing interrupt pins or a digital counter. The middle conductors of the RJ11 connector are related to the gauge’s swap.
Rain Gauge Mounting Arm
PRT-28865
This rain gauge mounting arm, similar to the one included in our Climate Meter Equipment, gives a steady and dependable platform for securing your rain gauge. Designed for straightforward set up on a steel mast or pole, it ensures your sensor is safe, permitting for correct and constant rainfall measurements in any climate situation.
Solder Wick #2 Yellow – TechSpray
TOL-29531
Do you know that solder wick, espresso, and our high-quality, furry associates maintain SparkFun working? You’ll be able to steal somebody’s diagonal cutters for a minute, however you’d higher ask earlier than touching their solder wick. This wick is 1.4mm (0.055″) (dimension #2) vast and 5ft lengthy.
That is it for this week at SparkFun. As all the time, we will not wait to see what you make! Shoot us a tweet @sparkfun, or tell us on Instagram, Fb or LinkedIn. Please be protected on the market, be type to 1 one other! Completely satisfied hacking!
