The TOF Laser Range Sensor is a TOF-based (time of flight) laser ranging sensor with embedded MCU and ranging algorithm, which is capable of offering up to 5m measuring range, ±1.5cm accuracy and 1mm resolution.

The sensor supports cascade ranging via UART or CAN bus and configurable data output including active output and query output.

This sensor can be widely used in applications such as common distance measuring, robot obstacle avoidance/route planning as well as drone altitude setting/ceiling detection and more!

UART / CAN Communication
Configurable communication bus, providing two ports (identical electric connection) for cascade ranging

Active Output/Query Output Active
Configurable data output mode making the sensor more flexible for acquiring data.

Cascade Ranging Support
Multiple sensors can be connected in series thanks to the two onboard identical ports, and each sensor can be configured with an ID,
therefore, the ranging data of all sensors can be acquired through one single communication bus.

When using cascade ranging, three output modes are available: UART query, CAN query, and CAN active output.

Assistant Software
Provides host computer assistant software, offering functions including sensor configuration, waveform monitor, data analysis, data record export & replay, firmware upgrade and more.
