2D LiDAR

  • What is 2D LiDAR?

  • 2D LiDAR sensors use laser light to measure distances in a plane, creating a 360-degree scan of their surroundings. This data is valuable for robots and other applications that need to navigate and interact with their environment.

  • What are the benefits of using 2D LiDAR?

  • 2D LiDAR offers several benefits, including:

    • High accuracy for distance measurement
    • Compact size and low weight
    • Low power consumption
    • Real-time data acquisition

  • How do I choose the right 2D LiDAR for my project?

  • The best 2D LiDAR for your project will depend on your specific needs. Consider factors such as:

    • Scanning range: How far do you need the LiDAR to measure?
    • Field of view: How wide an area do you need to scan?
    • Resolution: How precise do your distance measurements need to be?
    • Frame rate: How often do you need the LiDAR to take measurements?

Applications

  • What are some common applications for 2D LiDAR? 
  • 2D LiDAR is used in a wide range of applications, including:
    • Robotics: Navigation, obstacle avoidance, object detection
    • LiDAR interaction: People counting, gesture recognition, flow control
    • Mapping and surveying
    • Industrial automation
    • Security and surveillance

SDKs and Software

  • What are SDKs and software for LiDAR?

  • Many LiDAR manufacturers offer SDKs (Software Development Kits) and software that allow you to easily integrate their sensors into your project. These tools typically provide functions for:

    • Communicating with the LiDAR sensor
    • Processing LiDAR data
    • Visualizing LiDAR data

  • Do you offer any SDKs or software for the LiDARs you sell? 

  • Yes

We recommend checking the product description for each LiDAR sensor to see if there is any associated SDK or software available. In some cases, we may offer our own or recommend third-party options.

Additional Support

  • Do you offer technical support for the LiDARs you sell?

  • We offer technical support via email for all our products.

  • Can I return a LiDAR sensor if I am not satisfied?

  • Yes, you can return a LiDAR sensor within 30 days of purchase for a full refund, provided it is in its original condition.
