- Velocity for Object Classification: Enhance object detection and classification with our sensor's ability to measure velocity, providing critical data for real-time decision-making.
Advanced Technology
The ANT-01A is a 1024 parallel channel FMCW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) LiDAR system in a compact package. This sophisticated sensing technology is designed for high-resolution long-range detection and ranging applications. Key features include:
- High Resolution: A line scanner with 1024 resolution, delivering 1024 data points per scan, captures fine environmental details.
- FMCW Technology: Unlike traditional pulsed LiDAR, it emits a continuous wave of light with varying frequency, allowing precise measurement of both distance and velocity.
- Long Range: Capable of covering several hundred meters, often exceeding the range of pulsed LiDAR systems.
- Robustness: Superior performance in adverse weather conditions such as fog, rain, or dust, thanks to its ability to discriminate against particles that scatter light.
- Eye Safety: Operates at near-infrared wavelengths considered safe for human eyes, with lower power emissions due to the continuous wave nature.
