Lightware SF30/C 100m Laser Altimeter Lidar Rangefinder

Code: LW-01-04-SF30-C

The SF30/C laser measurement sensor provides real time, accurate altitude (AGL) measurements for RC models. The lightweight 36 gram design features a time-of-flight range up to 100 meters, and an update rate up to 20K readings per second.

The SF30/C laser measurement sensor provides real time, accurate altitude (AGL) measurements for RC models. The lightweight 36 gram design features a time-of-flight range up to 100 meters, and an update rate up to 20K readings per second. Typical applications:

• Assist with takeoff, landing and hovering

• Obstacle warning and collision avoidance

• Terrain following

• Mapping.

USB, serial, analog and alarm outputs enable easy system integration. The SF30/C is ArduPilot compatible, and laser Class 1M eye safe.
