Small, accurate, high-speed scanning laser range finder Obstacle detection and localization of autonomous robots Detection distance (maximum): 30m Light source: Laser semiconductor (905nm) Scan speed: 25ms (Motor speed 2400rpm) The Hokuyo UST-10LX Scanning Laser Rangefinder is a small, accurate, high-speed device for obstacle detection and localization of autonomous robots and automated material handling systems. This model uses Ethernet interface for communication and can obtain measurement data in a wide field of view up to a distance of 10 meters with millimeter resolution. Due to its low power consumption, this scanner is able to be used on battery-operated platforms. This sensor uses a laser source to scan 270° field of view. Positions of objects in the range are calculated with step angle and distance. Sensor outputs these data through communication channel. Applications Navigation and obstacle detection: Guide path planning for mobile robots and autonomous systems Object positioning: control docking processes of AGVs, AGCs Object Profiling: cargo containers, pallets for loading & unloading Object measurement and detection: volume of packages, pallets, flow measurement of bulk materials Area monitoring: building security and entrance ways
