TeraRanger One is a distance measurement sensor that streams distance values in millimetres.
The eyesafe infrared
TimeofFlight (ToF
) technology provides
superfast
distance readings
up to
1000 times per second
with an
accuracy of cm
±
, and a range up to
4
14m.
The
small size
weight (8g)
ake the sensor ideal for automation, robotics and drone
and
low
m
applications. It can be mounted on fixed or fast moving parts without affecting their performance.
In contrast to older technologies, such as ultrasound, TeraRanger One provides fast, reliable
data in a wide variety of environments and on most materials and surfaces, often outperforming
laserbased systems that cost many times more!
The sensor has two modes; fast and precision. In fast mode, accuracy is reduced and readings
are taken 1000 times a second (1kHz), making the sensor ideal for high speed obstacle
avoidance. In precision mode distance readings are achieved at up to 600Hz with an accuracy of
±
cm, but
4
±
2cm is possible with a custom calibration.
TeraRanger One is simple to connect and use and automatically adapts to changing light and
temperature. UART is the default interface and
compatible) is also available. Drivers for
TWI
(I2C
Robot Operating System
(ROS) and drone autopilots such as
Pixhawk PX4 and APM
are
available free of charge
.
TeraRanger One can also be
connected to a computer
using the
optional USB adapter, enabling easy firmware upgrades and a direct data stream to a serial port.
