The Slamtec S3E is a compact 360-degree DTOF LiDAR sensor for robot mapping, localization, obstacle detection, and indoor or outdoor navigation workflows. It is part of Slamtec's RPLIDAR S3 family, designed for high-resolution 2D scan data in a smaller body. Slamtec lists the S3 family with up to 40 m range at 70% reflectivity, 32K sample rate, 10 Hz typical scan rate, and 80k lux ambient-light resistance. This makes it useful for service robots, education platforms, commercial robots, and prototype mobile bases that need compact long-range sensing. Features SL-TOF distance measurement - Uses Slamtec self-developed SL-TOF technology to improve environmental light immunity and measurement accuracy. 40 m range at 70% reflectivity - Official S3 specifications list 0.05 m to 40 m at 70% reflectivity. 32K sample rate - Captures dense point-cloud data for faster mapping, localization, and target detection. 10 Hz typical scan rate - Supports 10 Hz typical scanning, adjustable from 10 Hz to 20 Hz. 0.1125-degree typical angular resolution - Provides fine 2D scan detail for robot navigation and obstacle awareness. 80k lux lighting resistance - Designed for indoor and outdoor applications with strong ambient light resistance. Class 1 laser safety - Listed by Slamtec as reaching Class 1 laser safety standard.
