You simply chose the backboard that best suits your application and preferred communications protocol USB and I2C/UART backboards are available, but custom backboards can also be made to support specific applications. Drivers for ROS (Robot Operating System) and popular drone flight controllers are also in development or available, adding to the plug and play convenience. The sensor is eye-safe and CE certified. Technical Specifications: TeraRanger Evo 60m Principle: Infrared Time-of-Flight (ToF) Range: *0.5m up to 60m Update Rate: Up to 240 readings per second Output Resolution: 0.5cm below 14m, 2cm from 14m Accuracy: 4cm in the first 14m, 1.5% above 14m Field of view: Approx. 2 Supply voltage: 5V DC +/-5% Supply current (min-max): 90mA - 330mA USB 2.0 Micro-B Interfaces: UART, +3.3V level, 115200,8,N,1. I2C, +3.3V level, 400kHz Single 9 pin Hirose DF13 Connectors: Micro USB Weight: 9g (sensor) + 3g (backboard) Dimensions: Approx. 29x29x22mm (sensor + backboard) Eye safety: Yes (CE certified) *Specifications are derived from tests in controlled conditions. Bright sunlight, target surface reflectivity and other variables will affect sensor performance. The combination of very bright sunshine and low reflectivity targets (such as grass) can reduce maximum range to 10m or less.
