STL-19P D500 Lidar Developer Kit 360 Degrees DTOF Laser Scanner Support ROS1 ROS2 Raspberry Pi Jetson Nano

The STL-19P D500 Lidar Developer Kit is a compact, high-performance 360-degree DTOF laser scanner designed for advanced environment mapping and obstacle avoidance. It is the ideal choice for South African students, educators, and makers building ROS-based robots with Raspberry Pi or Jetson Nano platforms. This developer kit offers reliable indoor and outdoor performance with excellent glare resistance.

Precise time-of-flight ranging

Using Direct Time-of-Flight (DTOF) technology, this scanner measures distances based on laser pulse flight times. It delivers an average ranging accuracy of ±45 mm across its entire 12-metre effective detection range. This ensures consistent accuracy for ROS robots performing environment detection, mapping, and obstacle avoidance.

Broad ROS compatibility

This developer kit is fully compatible with both ROS1 and ROS2 systems. It includes an SDK to help you quickly integrate the scanner with platforms like Raspberry Pi and Jetson Nano.

Glare resistance for outdoor use

Built-in filtering technology protects the sensor from glare, allowing it to resist up to 30,000 Lux of strong light. This enables high-frequency, high-precision distance measurement and accurate mapping in both indoor and outdoor environments.

Durable brushless motor design

Equipped with a brushless motor and high-speed wireless data transmission, this lidar unit is built for longevity. It offers a long service life of up to 10,000 hours of operation.

Full 360-degree omnidirectional scanning

The rangefinder core rotates clockwise to perform 360-degree omnidirectional scanning of the surrounding environment. This allows your robot to obtain detailed contour maps and precise point cloud information for obstacle detection.

Extended 12-metre measurement range

With a scanning radius of up to 12 metres, your robot can perceive and map large areas efficiently. This extended range ensures superior navigation and cruising capabilities over wide environments.

Compact and low-power design

The sensor features a highly compact structure and low power consumption, making it easy to integrate into smaller robot chassis. This space-saving design helps improve overall robot mobility and performance.
