This is the TF-Luna from Benewake, it offers range detection from 20cm to 8 meters and it is a single-point ranging LiDAR Distance Sensor, based on the TOF principle. With unique optical and electrical design, it can achieve stable, accurate, and highly sensitive range measurements.

 

 

The product is built with algorithms adapted to various application environments and adopts multiple adjustable configurations and parameters so as to offer excellent distance measurement performances in complex application fields and scenarios.

 

 

How does this LiDAR work?

TF-Luna is based on TOF, namely, the Time of Flight principle. It emits modulation waves of near-infrared rays on a periodic basis, which will be reflected after contact with an object. The LiDAR obtains the time of flight by measuring the round-trip phase difference and then calculates the relative distance between the LiDAR and the detected object.

 

TF-Luna supports power saving mode for power-sensitive applications, it reduces its power consumption by adjusting both the current level and duty cycle of the light source. With a 5 V power supply, TF-Luna’s power consumption on Continuous ranging mode is about 350 mW as the light source switch to the highest current level and duty cycle.

 

Note: Not recommended for measuring the level of liquids. This is because LiDAR relies on the reflection of laser pulses off of solid objects to determine distance, and liquid surfaces are often too smooth and reflective to produce a reliable reflection.
