DESCRIPTION
RETIRED PRODUCT – We’ve stopped stocking this product or it has been retired by the manufacturer and is no longer for sale. This page remains available for its resources and as a source of potential interest.
The RPLIDAR A1 is a low cost 360-degree 2D laser scanner (LIDAR) solution developed by SLAMTEC. The system can perform 360-degree scan within 6meter range. The produced 2D point cloud data can be used in mapping, localisation and object/environment modelling.
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.
It is basically a laser triangulation measurement system. It works excellent in all kinds of indoor environment and outdoor environments without too much sunlight.
