The TF Mini LiDAR is a one-way laser rangefinder based -of-flight (ToF) technology. It utilizes optical and electronic devices, integrated with adaptive algorithms for a variety of indoor and outdoor applications. Despite its compact size, it offers excellent ranging performance It can be used as a rangefinder to detect the distance to obstacles ahead; it can also as a robot's eyes, providing distance information for safe obstacle avoidance and route selection It supports system automation in various machine control scenarios. Due to its small size, light weight, and low power consumption, it is also suitable for drones to maintain altitude and perform terrain following The TF Mini boasts a maximum detection range of 12 meters, supports 100Hz sampling resolution, and offers accuracy within 4cm within 6 meters and within 6cm from 6 to 12 meters. It also features a 2.3 field of view, strong interference immunity, and can operate in bright outdoor sunlight. It weighs a mere 4.7g The TF Mini LiDAR uses a UART (TTL) communication interface and can be powered by a standard 5V voltage. Its average power consumption is 0.6W, making it compatible with various for controllers Note: The product may fail when detecting highly reflective objects, such as mirrors and smooth tiles.The product may also fail when there are transparent objects, such as glass or water, between the product and the target.Do not touch the circuit board directly with your bare hands. If necessary, wear an anti-static wrist strap or anti-static gloves.
