Lightware SF40/C 100m Laser Scanner 360 SLAM

Code: LW-02-04-SF40-C

New updated version SF40/C is a long range (0... 100 m), laser scanner designed specifically to provide RC models with SLAM intelligence. Providing RC models with simultaneous localization and mapping intelligence.

New updated version... The following enhancements have been made: 1. The red Motor driver PCBA is now internal, making for a more compact and robust design; 2. The unit is fully field upgradeable; 3. We’ve improved the diagnostic functions through the LightWare Terminal program; 4. A USB cable will no longer be provided, only a serial cable, but of course a serial to USB converter can be used. 5. Importantly: we’ve replaced the FPGA with a new type of processor. We hope this will alleviate the resetting issue caused by some power supplies. Please use this new draft manual for the product: https://lightware-optoelectronics.github.io/sf40-docs/ SF40/C is a long range (0... 100 m), laser scanner designed specifically to provide RC models with SLAM intelligence.

Typical applications:

• Assist with takeoff, landing and hovering.

• Collision avoidance and low level manoeuvring.

• Critical component.

The SF40/C is a laser scanner for which provides RC models with simultaneous localization and mapping intelligence. With 100 % data saturation at 5 image updates per second, multi-directional collision avoidance is enabled.

• Easy to configure using the built-in menus and LightWare Terminal software Fully calibrated and ready to run Complete with power, interface and micro USB cables.
