OS-1 Mid-Range High-Resolution Imaging Lidar
The OS-1 is a rugged, mid-range high-resolution imaging lidar sensor engineered for reliable performance in demanding all-weather environments. Designed for industrial automation, autonomous vehicles, robotics, smart infrastructure, and mapping applications, the OS-1 delivers precise 3D perception with exceptional durability and configurable performance.
With a 90 m range on a dark 10% reflectivity target, a wide 42.4° vertical field of view, and advanced signal processing capabilities, the OS-1 provides rich point cloud data suitable for complex perception tasks. Its compact form factor, low power consumption, and extensive software compatibility make it ideal for scalable integration into production systems.
