A standard LRF typically has a small beam divergence as it is optimized for measuring long distances. In CUAV applications, the operational distance is much shorter and the objects to be targeted are much smaller. Therefore, the LRF 6742 has a large beam divergence of 3 mrad. This results in a large laser beam field that is ideal for tracking small, moving objects.
Under clear skies, sunlight easily overlays a laser beam. However, compared to a standard LRF, the LRF 6742 is optimized for very bright lighting conditions and perfectly detects even the smallest laser reflections by utilizing a special receiver.
Until now, accurately tracking a small, moving object in real-time has been a challenge. Often, a combination of multiple sensors was required. This resulted in complex and time-consuming data processing and poor accuracy. In comparison, the LRF 6742 enables real-time tracking of a moving drone with an accuracy deviation of less than 1 meter.
