Description
Overview
GAOTek scanning lidar sensor operates on the principle of time of flight (TOF) measurement. At a very high synchronous clock, the laser is emitted at even time intervals. When the laser beam encounters an object, it is reflected back. After the scanning sensor receives the reflected beam, the time difference at between the transmitting and receiving is used to calculate the laser sensor to the object distance.
