In the process of moving, the robot may encounter the situation that the road surface has downward steps or the ground sag. If the robot can’t sense them and take action, it risks falling.
Small size, easy to be embedded into the robotApplications:
High frequency, can adapt to various running speeds
High ranging performance, high energy redundancy, can adapt to various installation angles
Low cost, a variety of models available
UART, IIC and IO interfaces are available
The TF series lidar mounted on the robot detects the distance information under the slant in real time at a certain angle. When the road surface is flat, the ranging value will be stable in a certain range; When the road surface is abnormal, the ranging value will exceed the reasonable range and the distance will change suddenly. It can be judged that there are steps or depressions ahead. At this time, the robot should slow down or turn to prevent falling.
