TF03 ToF Single-Point Ranging Solid State LiDAR Sensor (180m, UART / CAN, IP67) - DFRobot SEN0329

TF03 is an industrial-grade long-distance ToF single-point ranging solid state LiDAR , provides detection range up to 180m. As the third generation product of TF series, TF03 inherits the cost-effective and compact-integration advantages from the previous two generations. This TF03 (180m) solid state lidar is compatible with multiple interfaces, UART/CAN/IO to meet the various demands in different application scenarios.

Excellent performance

1. Detection Range Up to 180m

2. 0.1m Blind Zone

3. ±10cm Accuracy

4. Up to 10KHz Frequency

5. 100Klux Ambient Light Immunit

6. Contains a compensation algorithm targeting outdoor highlight environment, keeping excellent performance in harsh environment.

High Protection Level and Support Multiple Interfaces

The shell of TF03 (180m) solid state LiDAR is made of aluminum alloy and infrared band-pass glass to improve the overall strength. With IP67 enclosure rate, the sensor can be applied in various extreme environments.

Meanwhile, it supports multiple interfaces for different applications, such as, UART, CAN, IO.

Customised Working Modes

Besides that, multiple parameters of TF03 (180m) single-point ranging LiDAR can be configured by customers, including the measuring frequency, baud rate, trigger mode, over-range assignment, and so on. TF03 is also equipped with BootLoader function, enabling users to upgrade product firmware locally. 

Small size

With a small size of 44*42.9*31.8mm, it can be covered by just a palm of one hand. The TF03 (180m) solid state LiDAR is applicable to the terrain following of drones, the collision avoidance of cars, intelligent transportation, and industrial safety warning.

Easy to use

It is compatible with controllers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi.  With Arduino and Raspberry Pi libraries developed by DFRobot, users can conveniently integrate functions into system to develop their applications.
