## Description

Description: TFmini-S lidar sensor is the improved version of TFmini sensor. Single-Point micro ranging module has a small size and lightweight, it could be widely used in the integrated application of various drones, UAVs, Robots and industrial equipments. It is based on ToF (Time of Flight) principle and integrated with unique optical and electrical designs, so as to achieve stable, precise, high sensitivity and high-speed distance detection. Features: Operating Range : 0.1-12m Maximum operating range at 10% reflectivity : 5m Applicable voltage range : 4.5-6V Average power consumption : 0.12W FOV : 2° Communication interface : UART/I2C Electromagnetic Compatibility(EMC): EN 55032 Class B Baud rate: 115200 Data bit: 8 Stop bit: 1 Parity bit: 0 Minimum resolution ratio : 5mm Frequency: 100Hz(1-1000Hz adjustable) Light source: VCSEL Wavelength: 850nm Operating temperature : 20-60C Light sensitivity : 70,000lux Accuracy : 1% (less than 6m), 2% (6m-12m) Size : 42mm * 15mm * 16mm Weight : 6.1g Certification: CE,FCC,ROHS Major Applications: Traffic Monitoring Obstacle detection Level measurement Smart device Security and obstacle avoidance Drone altitude holding and terrain following Machine control and safety sensors Distance measuring instrumentPackage included1 x TFmini-S Lidar Range Finder Sensor Module🚩 User Document: How to work with pixhawk : https://discuss.ardupilot.org/t/avoidance-experiments-with-the-poc-and-benewake-tfmini/25277 △ How to use with raspberry pi: https://github.com/TFmini

Review: Perfect Rangefinder for my Drone/Copter using ArduPilot - Accurate for such an inexpensive device. I am using it as one of many sensors for object avoidance. Needed some minor rewiring to work with my flight controller and ArduPilot but that is to be expected.
