The Hokuyo UST-15LX Scanning Laser Rangefinder is a high-performance LiDAR device encased in a compact and lightweight housing. It is designed to deliver exceptional scanning capabilities with a measurement range of up to 15 meters. The device features a switchable angular resolution of 0.25º or 0.125º, allowing for precise data collection. Operating at a scan speed of 40Hz, it provides rapid and accurate environmental mapping, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
This rangefinder offers a wide 270° field of view, enabling comprehensive area coverage. It utilizes Ethernet 100BASE-TX communication for efficient data transmission, ensuring seamless integration into various systems. The Time of Flight LiDAR technology employed by the UST-15LX enhances its ability to accurately measure distances by calculating the time taken for a laser pulse to return after hitting an object. Additionally, the device supports Multi Echo capability, which improves detection reliability by capturing multiple reflections from a single laser pulse.
The Hokuyo UST-15LX is engineered to operate within a temperature range of -10ºC to 50ºC and can function effectively in environments with humidity levels below 85%, provided there is no dew or frost. Its robust construction is evidenced by its IP67 rating, offering protection against dust and water ingress, although this excludes connections on the standard model. The device is powered by a 12VDC or 24VDC supply voltage, with an operational range of 10 to 30V, ensuring flexibility in power source options.
Note: Ensure proper handling and installation to maintain the device's IP67 rating and avoid exposure to conditions that may lead to dew or frost formation.
