LiDAR for AGV And Robotic Navigation

From magnetic stripe navigation, two-dimensional code navigation to laser navigation to visual navigation, every leap is based on the continuous improvement of core technologies. For laser navigation, the key sensor realized by its technology – lidar has been placed in a more important position and has become one of the core components of the AGV and robot navigation and collision avoidance.

Lidar is a radar system that emits laser beams to detect the position, velocity and other characteristic quantities of targets. Its working principle is to transmit a detection signal (laser beam) to the target, and then compare the received signal (target echo) reflected from the target with the transmitted signal, and after proper processing, the relevant information of the target can be obtained, such as target distance, bearing, altitude, speed, attitude, and even shape.

2D LiDAR for AGV And Robotics Navigation

2D navigation lidar can basically only navigate in real time, and two-dimensional imaging lacks height information and cannot be imaged.

At present, the AGV industry is mainly based on 2D navigation radar, because the general industrial scene environment is relatively fixed and simple, and 2D navigation lidar can fully meet the needs.

Indoor Applications

LS01B Series 360°Triangular LiDAR

LS01 series LiDAR is a 2D LiDAR developed by Leishen. This series LiDAR can do 360° 2D scanning to generate spatial point cloud map, signals of switching values and point cloud.
