The next device in the LiDAR-Lite family is the LED sensor. A compact, light-weight, and low-power optical rangefinder.
It is the first optical sensor to use ANT profile wireless networking technology. Because it has a built-in nRF52840 CPU, developers can make their own programs for it, or it can run the preloaded stock application to function as a standalone device right out of the box.
For OEM and maker applications in robotics, the Internet of Things, unmanned vehicles, or any other situation where an ultrasonic sensor might be employed, it therefore offers a very versatile choice.
The Global LiDAR-Lite Optical Distance LED Sensor market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
A high-performance, wireless optical distance measurement sensor that doesn’t need any soldering to get started is the SparkFun Garmin LiDAR-Lite v4 Qwiic LED Distance Measurement Sensor.
The LiDAR-Lite Sensor has a range of up to 10 metres, a resolution of 1cm, and a data acquisition current requirement of 85mA.Although it works on 3V3 logic, the LiDAR sensor requires 5V to function.
With just one piece of hardware, users may power the sensor and obtain distance readings over Qwiic due to a 5V boost circuit and an accessible Qwiic connector.
An infrared beam is sent out by the SparkFun Garmin LiDAR-Lite v4 Qwiic LED Distance Measurement Sensor, which then measures how long it takes for the beam to be reflected.
For this version, the LiDAR-Lite v4 uses LEDs rather than a laser and is intrinsically eye-safe when used normally.
