It features low power infrared laser technology, ensuring safety with Class 1 laser standards. This sensor is compatible with SLAMTEC's ecosystem and supports various development platforms, offering seamless integration for various applications.

SLAMTEC self-developed SL-TOF distance measurement technology improves environmental light immunity and measurement accuracy.

A stable and fixed 40-meter measurement radius

Evenat 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.

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.
