Sensor Module
The Leddar™ Sensor Module can be integrated into any detection and ranging system, enabling developers and integrators to make the most of Leddar™ technology with unmatched flexibility thanks to its compact size and low weight, ease of integration, low power consumption, and high reliability.

Discover Leddar™ Technology Leddar™ (Light Emitting Diode Detection and Ranging) is a novel detection and ranging technology created by LeddarTech that performs time-of-flight measurement using pulses from visible or infrared LEDs. Combining multiple independent active elements, typically 16, into a single sensor, Leddar™ continuously provides rapid and accurate detection and ranging in the entire beam without any moving parts. The large beam and diffused light pulses of the Leddar™ Sensor, processed through innovative algorithms, allow detection of a wide range of objects under various environmental conditions. Interfaces A 3.81 mm x 8 pin male header is provided for interfacing through a cable harness or terminal block.

A USB “Mini-B” connector is also provided for use with the Leddar™ Software Development Kit, and a 2 x 20, 0.050” header is provided for custom expansion. Please contact the factory for specific interface requirements. Mounting The module can be mounted from the back with 6 M3 machine screws. Leddar™ Receiver Assembly The Leddar™ receiver includes 16 independent segments with simultaneous acquisition capabilities.

Several beam options are available, ranging from 9° to 95° (see back page). The beam width and height depend on the selected beam option.
