Perceiving the world as a series of disconnected dots, single-point sensors leave vast blind spots and thus often miss critical obstacles. The TF-NOVA Line Laser LiDAR is engineered to eliminate this fundamental flaw. By projecting a wide 14° "curtain" of laser light, it creates a continuous line of detection. At a distance of 1 meter, this line covers an area of 25cm x 1.7cm—perfect for ensuring nothing slips through. This represents a new dimension of perception for automated machines.
Line-Shaped Detection
Features a unique 14° horizontal by 1° vertical Field of View (FoV), creating a "laser line" of detection. It reliably spots thin objects like chair legs, wires, or pallet edges that single-point sensors would easily miss.
Stable Outdoor Detection
Built on Pulse Time-of-Flight (PToF) technology, the TF-NOVA delivers stable and accurate measurements up to 14 meters, even in 100Klux direct sunlight or on dark, low-reflectivity surfaces.
Incredibly Compact & Lightweight
Smaller than an AA battery and weighing under 5g, its tiny footprint allows for seamless integration into space-constrained and weight-sensitive applications like drones, gimbals, and compact robotics.
Flexible & Easy Integration
Equipped with UART, I2C, and a configurable I/O mode, it connects directly to platforms like Arduino or Raspberry Pi. The I/O mode can trigger a simple high/low signal, dramatically reducing the main controller's data processing workload.
Class 1 Eye-Safe
The 905nm VCSEL light source is classified as EN60825 Class 1, ensuring safety for use in consumer products, educational settings, and public spaces.
High Update Rate for Dynamic Tasks
With a configurable frame rate up to 900Hz, it can track fast-moving objects or provide real-time feedback for high-speed robotic applications.

Receipt of deliveries
Deliveries to post office boxes are not permitted where delivery is by courier. If delivery is by courier and nobody is available at the delivery address to accept delivery when delivery is attempted then the courier may either:
- leave the relevant parcel at the unattended address (the courier will do so if specified in your delivery requirements); or
- re-attempt delivery at a later time or date, in which case we may charge you an additional re-delivery fee.
Note that if a delivery is left unattended at the shipping address and is subsequently stolen then the theft is your responsibility, not ours.
