What is lidar?

LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) is a remote sensing technology that uses laser pulses to measure distances to objects or surfaces, creating accurate 3D maps of environments. It works by emitting laser beams and measuring the time it takes for the light to reflect back.

The LiDAR LD06 module is a compact, low-cost LiDAR sensor that provides 360-degree scanning and is often used in robotics, autonomous vehicles, and mapping applications. It uses a rotating laser to detect distances within a 6-meter range and provides data that helps devices detect obstacles and navigate efficiently.
