Application of laser ranging sensor on drone

Aug 07, 2019

When working in the field, the small drone is easy to collide with various obstacles. After applying the laser range finder provided by our company, the probability of collision risk can be avoided, and the distance of the probe can be accurately positioned.

There are also a number of laser rangefinders, laser sensors, etc. applied to similar projects. The laser range sensor has stable performance and is suitable for 24-hour endless working environment, frequency up to 1000HZ, standard range of 500 meters, measurement accuracy of 10CM, and various communication interfaces. In addition, with the 10m laser ranging module, the 5000m laser range finder can achieve seamless jointing in the whole system.

Two laser distance sensors are installed on the two wings of the small field detection unmanned surveillance aircraft to realize real-time monitoring of work.

In the sales process, many customers have misunderstood the difference between industrial laser ranging sensors and civilian range finder. For this reason, the sales department has given the following simple distinction between laser range finder.

First, industrial laser range finder

The industrial laser range finder measures the distance between 0.5-3000 meters, the precision is less than 50mm, and the reflector is added 300 meters away. Some products can also measure the speed while measuring. Mainly used for position control (such as vehicles and ships); positioning cranes; handling and handling equipment; aircraft measurement (algorometers); metallurgical process control; measuring unsuitable objects (such as pipe fillings, pipes, containers), and Water level measurement.

Second, civilian handheld laser range finder

The measuring distance is generally within 200 meters and the accuracy is about 2 mm. This is the most widely used laser range finder. A typical product is a 1000 meter laser range sensor. In addition to functionally measuring the distance, it is generally possible to calculate the volume of the measured object.

Third, telescope laser range finder

The measuring distance is generally about 600-30000 meters. This type of range finder has a relatively long measuring distance, but the accuracy is relatively low, and the precision is generally about 1 meter. A typical product is a 5000 meter laser range finder. The main application range is field long distance measurement.
