TFmini S LiDAR module - Short-Range ToF LIDAR Range Finder is a distance sensor of LIDAR that can emit near-infrared rays and measure the phase difference between the emitting ray and reflected ray to calculate the distance through ToF. Because of the LIDAR principle, it is hard to give an accurate distance between transparent objects like water or glass. However, it is still a sensitive distance sensor for measuring the moving object and calculating the distance between the object and TFmini in real time.

This distance sensor leaves I2C and UART interface for developers and you can simply plug TFmini through the TTL to USB converter to the PC and get the distance data on your computer.

Highlighted Features

• High Sensitivity: Emits near-infrared ray and catches the reflected ray which can give the response in a short time.
• High Precision: ToF method is used to calculate the phase difference between the emitting and reflected rays to measure the distance. The accuracy is ±6cm for the 0.1-6m range and ±1% for the 6m-12m range.
• Selectable Interface: I2C and UART interface for developers to choose from.
