LM-0400 Laser Range Finder
Laser range finding is one of the applications of light detection and ranging known as LIDAR. The principle of this technique is well known from the RADAR (Radio wave Detection And Ranging). Instead of using radio waves, the LIDAR uses light as electromagnetic wave. Both techniques are based on the emission of a short pulse of electromagnetic radiation and the reception of back scattered signals from a target. The time t between the emission and reception of the pulse is measured and the distance d is calculated based on the velocity v of electromagnetic radiation. Using v≈3×108 m/sec for the speed of light, the time interval t for a distance d of 10 m will be 60 ns.Item | Code | Qty. | Description |
