DFRobot TF-NOVA Line Laser LiDAR Sensor

DFRobot TF-NOVA Line Laser LiDAR Sensor features a wide 14° x 1° detection area and creates a continuous line of detection. This sensor detects a 25cm × 1.7cm area at distances beyond 1m. The TF-NOVA LiDAR sensor delivers reliable detection of 5cm black low-reflectivity obstacles within 2m under intense outdoor sunlight or low-light nighttime conditions. This sensor is equipped with interfaces like UART and I²C and supports both standalone and networked operation. Typical applications include automatic door collision prevention, robot obstacle avoidance, shuttle vehicle obstacle detection, parking space detection, and focus assistance.
