RPLiDAR C1 - DTOF LiDAR 360° Laser Range Scanner (12m, IP54) SLAMTEC

SLAMTEC RPLIDAR C1 - Fusion DTOF LiDAR for precise 360° environment detection

The RPLIDAR C1 is a compact fusion DTOF (Direct Time of Flight) laser scanner for consumer and service robots. It combines high detail detection at close range with a range of up to 12 m (at 70 % reflection) and delivers reliable 360° scans for mapping, navigation, localization and obstacle avoidance.

Highlights at a glance

360° all-round scanning for robust navigation and mapping in a wide range of environments

Range: 0.05-12 m (white/70 % reflection) and 0.05-6 m (black/10 % reflection)

High measurement performance: 5 kHz sampling and 8-12 Hz scanning frequency (typ. 10 Hz)

Reliable in everyday use: anti-interference/anti-adhesion focus and 40,000 lux ambient light tolerance

More data for better perception: position data plus reflection data and "2.5D" information for additional reference points
