Since the laser radar applications in robotics, unmanned and other fields related to the topic of laser radar continuous, laser radar why so favored by the market?
What is a laser radar?
Laser radar is also called laser distance sensor , is actually a laser transmitter, plus a scanner rotation. FIG scanned is a two-dimensional plane.
Single-line laser radar features:
Then: all the way to launch one receiver, simple structure, easy to use;
: High scan speed, high angular resolution;
Low: low power, small size, low weight;
Fine: cm built FIG accuracy level;
Province: bulk price of several hundred dollars;
Length: long life, and can work 24 hours a day;
Canton: wide range of applications.
Mature market and players
Laser radar sensor as an integral part of the field of artificial intelligence, the human equivalent of "eyes" to help determine the location of objects, the size, external morphology and even material, acting as a pivotal position in the whole industry of artificial intelligence.
Look at single line laser radar market, due to meet user demand for cost and performance everywhere in the field of domestic / commercial service robots. The future is the presence of unlimited possibilities and great imagination. In terms of security, transportation, intelligent highways and other new applications constantly being excavated.
According to industry] [Prospective Research Institute released annual revenue from China laser radar market of 349 million yuan in 2018 increased to 446 million yuan in 2022, has unlimited potential, unlimited can be expected.
Application landing everywhere
Home / commercial service robots
As laser radar indispensable service robot sensors, and ultrasonic ranging compared to the image, and having excellent directivity of highly focused, is the most reliable and stable positioning technology. Laser radar sensor acquiring map information, build maps, route planning and navigation to achieve.
Multi-touch
In addition to positioning built map, you can also use a laser radar SDK interfaces make applications, the screen technology principle is the use of infrared laser projection device to the infrared multi-point touch []. When the screen is blocked, the infrared will be reflected, while the camera captures the screen is reflected destination, and then analyzed by the system, they can react.
Security
In terms of security, laser radar can be linked with multiple cameras, intelligent recognition of the *** who take the initiative to obtain accurate dynamic tracking and real-time track and field record, to facilitate the work of security personnel to take timely manhunt.
AGV
激光雷达能指导AGV进行最佳路径的判断、轻松避开障碍物以及顺利到达目的地，同时还不用额外安装反光板，具有定位精度高、路径柔性高和智能化程度高的优点。
无人机
目前，激光雷达在低空飞行直升机障碍物规避方面已进入实用阶段，帮助直升机进行低空巡逻飞行，避免与地面小山或建筑物相撞。
辅助无人驾驶
单线激光雷虽然是二维成像，但是可以用于辅助自动驾驶，辅助车辆尤其是大型货车实现前后向碰撞预警和盲区监测等功能，提高道路安全等级。
成本低，易批量
不管是运用在何种领域，激光雷达始终绕不开成本这个问题。单线雷达成本低，则意味着可量产的可能性高，能实现批量落地。
技术门槛：
不仅是思岚科技，很多激光雷达厂商都在尝试改变这个局面，从技术源头上降低成本。
思岚科技采用图像的方法进行激光雷达传感器的设计，当激光到达物体表面后产生发射，通过接收激光在感光平面上的成像点，根据远近不同导致成像点像素坐标位置来求得距离。这一设计，直接避免了激光雷达安装依赖国外进口的特殊的激光发射器，降低了成本。
但三角测距原理的单线雷达并不是终点，为了寻求更高性能的激光雷达，思岚还在积极研发TOF测距原理雷达，很快就会与大家见面，敬请期待。
产品良品率：
除了技术门槛之外，激光雷达的良品率也严重影响着成本的高低。激光雷达的组装过程、顺序、使用材料，工人的调教上都有很严格的要求。
为了避免产线上不确定因素的产生，思岚还利用计算机进行辅助，进行自动化式的激光调教，以此降低对工人个人能力的要求，控制成本的同时也能保证品质。
未来是一个泛“无人驾驶”的时代，自动驾驶会迎来高速发展，消费级机器人也会实现进一步的普及和落地。企业所要做的，就是不断提升给市场超前的技术和产品，实现激光雷达的持续繁荣之路。
