Testing out a new super light weight laser scanner: 75g, 360 deg rotation, 100m range. Production in a few months :)

We're developing a special 300m laser altimeter for conservationists. They use light aircraft to photograph and count animals.

Later in the year we will be releasing the SF30/D. A 250m laser altimeter for light aircraft. Initial test results look great!

SF33 multi-beam laser tests, 3000 readings/sec each beam, 5deg beam separation, 50m range. For UAV anti-collision.

Come and see us at Interdrone in Las Vegas in September, stand 304: interdrone.com

Been checking the progress of our new scanning laser - all 3D printed parts even the traveling wave piezo motor. Awesome!

Cool DIY handheld laser rangefinder - thanks Ken! x.com/ParallaxKen/st…

LightWare will be demonstrating new anti-collision lasers for flight corridors at interdrone.com theguardian.com/technology/201…

Thanks to Ken from Parallax for posting this video about a portable SF10: youtube.com/watch?v=qjq5vu…

We're wrapping things up for the interdrone.com Expo next week. We'll be showing off new laser technology :)

A new discussion about using laser for sense-and-avoid in slow moving UAVs can be found here: diydrones.com/profiles/blogs…

Final tests of the new long range SF00 are complete. Great results out to 300m. Aircraft and helicopter height AGL.

Did you know - the SF02 laser range finder is hackable? Take a look at this hackaday post: hackaday.io/project/8078-s…

Nice - laser for altitude hold! x.com/ParallaxKen/st…

The SF30 laser range finder now includes speed measurement as standard :)

SF40 sense-and-avoid LiDAR in production. This awesome product can navigate! Take a look: diydrones.com/profiles/blogs…

The LW20 is in development - the world's smallest LiDAR can measure over 100m 😀

Final testing of the tiny LW20 LiDAR scanning system underway. Awesome!

The LW20 is waterproof and dust resistant to IP67. The world's smallest LiDAR offers big performance 👍
