[Dprglist] LiDAR with 132 deg by 9 deg FOV

[Doug Paradis]

-All,
    At the last DPRG meeting, Carl Ott, showed a video as part of his
presentation of a LiDAR that used two sensor arrays to generate s field of
points instead of a single point. At the time the audience wondered when it
would trickle down to hobbyists. The video showed the sensor in use on a
automobile, and hope was that mass production would lower cost and
availability quickly.

   Well...

   Benewake has a similar sensor available at Robotshop.com. It is
designated as the CE-30A.

Details:

- FOV:    132 deg H, 9 d (works under 60K LUX [avg outdoors, not TX sun)
- Solid-state system (no rotating components)
- Can be used in applications such as AGV obstacle avoidance
- Accuracy: ≤6cm / Detecting Range: 0.1~4m
- Optimized obstacle avoidance mode -
     Outputs a single point data that point out the location of the closest
obstacle
- Data Interface: CAN
- Method: Time of flight
- Peak Wavelength: 850nm
- Pixel Resolution: 320*24
- Frame Rate: 20fps
- Repeatability (1σ): ≤3cm
- Accuracy: ≤6cm
- Supply Voltage: DC 12 V±5% (≥2A)
- Power Consumption: ≤6W
- Weight: 219g
- Cost: $999
