Terabee

- TeraRanger Tower

Two versions are available, one with eight TeraRanger One sensors (Tower 8), and the other with four TeraRanger One sensors (Tower 4). Tower 8 gives you more data points to work with, producing denser maps and providing more sensing coverage for collision avoidance. Tower 4 is a lower cost alternative offering the flexibility to place 4 sensors where needed, and the option of plugging in more sensors at a later date if required.

Field of View Advantage

An advantage of TeraRanger LED technology is that it enables the sensor to have a “Field of View” so that, rather than measuring distance based on a very small point of laser light, the sensor measures over an area. At a 1m distance, the area is approximately 3cm by 3cm. At 10m it is approximately 30cm by 30cm, increasing linearly with range. For many drone applications, this is a significant advantage, enabling you to detect small hazards that the laser may miss. It also provides a more appropriate and stable data stream when flying a drone over vegetation, close to trees or other irregular shaped objects that need to be detected at high speed.
