RPLiDAR C1 – DTOF LiDAR 360 Laser Range Scanner

The RPLIDAR C1 is a new generation fusion-type DTOF (Direct Time of Flight) laser scanner from SLAMTEC. This advanced LIDAR system excels in high-definition detection of small and nearby objects, offering superior anti-interference and anti-adhesion capabilities. With a measurement radius of 12 meters, a sampling frequency of 5000 times per second, and 360-degree full-range laser scanning, the compact and agile design of the RPLIDAR C1 is ideally suited for applications such as robot positioning, mapping, navigation, and obstacle avoidance in a variety of environments.

HD High Definition and Cost-Effective

RPLIDAR C1 integrates the technical advantages accumulated by SLAMTEC in triangulation and DTOF ranging for many years, enabling C1 to meet the requirements of robot positioning, mapping, and navigation in terms of ranging accuracy, distance measurement, anti-interference, and anti-adhesion performance.

Enhanced Perception but Not Limited to Flat Surfaces

With SLAMTEC’s self-developed SL-DTOF ranging technology, RPLIDAR C1 not only provides position information data but also offers reflectivity data and 2.5D multidimensional information, providing you with more reference points.

12m Radius Range and Easy to Handle Various Object Ranging Challenges

RPLIDAR C1 has a measuring distance of up to a radius of 12 meters and a low blind range of only 0.05 meters. It easily accomplishes scanning and measuring objects at various distances and achieves obstacle avoidance.

Compact in Size and Easy to Integrate

RPLIDAR C1 not only delivers powerful performance but also features a compact and agile design. It is small and has low levels of noise and vibration, making it easy to integrate into various applications. Its compact size and versatility open up a wide range of possibilities and uses.

High Reliability and Compatibility with the SLAMTEC ecosystem

RPLIDAR C1 exhibits high compatibility with SLAMTEC’s software and hardware interfaces, allowing seamless integration into the SLAMTEC ecosystem. It also offers a smooth transition when switching from existing SLAMTEC products.
