Laser Distance Sensor
The 3993 Laser Distance Sensor by Waveshare is a 3D laser ranging distance measurement module developed with high precision laser triangulation ranging technology. It is composed of a laser emitter and a receiving head, connected by a shielded USB cable. It is suitable for various applications, such as simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), robot navigation and positioning, autonomous robot obstacle avoidance, and more. The 3993 can measure a variety of surfaces, such as walls, floors, wood, and rocks, with a detection range of up to 0.3 - 10m. The module provides an I2C interface to communicate with the MCU (master control unit), allowing for real-time data acquisition. Additionally, the user-friendly API provided by Waveshare offers access to the complete suite of features of the 3993, making it easier and more efficient to use.
