Product Features
SLAMTEC self-developed SL-TOF distance measurement technology improves
environmental light immunity and measurement accuracy.
S3 High laser scanning resolutions S3 Low measurement noise
Traditional DTof laser scanning resolutions Traditional DTof Low measurement noise
A stable and fixed 40-meter measurement radius
Even at 70% reflectance, RPlidar S3 can ensure an accurate distance measurement of about 40m,
meeting the requirements for medium to long-range scanning.
Low reflectivity at 15 meters measurement radius
RPlidar S3 performs equally well in measuring distances when facing low-reflectivity objects such as black color doors and anti-reflective coating objects. It can measure up to a distance of 15 meters with a 10% reflectivity.
Black object ranging up to 15m (at 10% reflectivity)
High detection rate for highly reflective objects such as mirrors and glass
32,000 times/second High-Speed Sampling Capabilities
RPlidar S3 demonstrates exceptional capabilities in real-time perception, precise positioning, and target detection. Its high-speed sampling frequency allows it to capture a greater amount of point cloud data, enabling faster and more accurate mapping.
80,000Lux anti-interference ability of ambient light
Thanks to hardware optimization, the RPlidar S3 effectively reduced light interference and provides accurate laser ranging data, regardless of challenging conditions such as indoor strong lighting or direct sunlight outdoors.
Smaller size, better performance
RPlidar S3 is compact and sleek, with a total height of only 4cm, making it the smallest LiDAR product by SLAMTEC. It is cost-effective while overcoming the limitations of space and catering to various application scenarios.
Compatible with the SLAMTEC ecosystem
RPlidar S3 is highly compatible with SLAMTEC’s software, firmware, and hardware interfaces. It also provides a seamless transition in terms of size with SLAMTEC’s existing products, ensuring smooth integration
