From $993.00Sale Price
DRAGINO NB-IoT LiDAR Distance Sensor with Auto-Clean is a wireless NB-IoT LiDAR ToF (Time of Flight) distance sensor designed for remote measurement and monitoring. It uses laser-based distance detection to measure objects up to 25 metres away under the manufacturer's specified conditions, with an integrated dust removal brush to help maintain the optical surface. Measurements can be transmitted to an NB-IoT server using MQTT, MQTTS, UDP, TCP or CoAP, making the sensor suitable for remote industrial monitoring and automated control applications.

The DRAGINO NB-IoT LiDAR Distance Sensor with Auto-Clean is an NB-IoT connected LiDAR ToF distance sensor for applications where distance measurements need to be collected remotely. The sensor uses VCSEL laser technology to determine the distance between the probe and a target, with a specified measurement range of up to 25 metres at 90% reflectivity.

A key feature is the integrated dust removal brush. The sensor can drive the brush across the optical mirror to remove accumulated dust, and the cleaning configuration can be customised. This makes the DRAGINO NB-IoT LiDAR Distance Sensor with Auto-Clean particularly relevant to monitoring applications where dust or material accumulation may occur around the sensing area.

How it works

  • The LiDAR probe emits laser light and measures the return signal using Time of Flight technology to determine the distance to the target.
  • The measured distance is processed by the sensor and transmitted wirelessly through the built-in NB-IoT module.
  • Data can be sent using MQTT, MQTTS, UDP, TCP or CoAP, depending on the requirements of the IoT system.
  • Periodic uplinks can be configured for remote monitoring, while downlink communication can be used to change configuration.
  • The integrated cleaning mechanism drives a dust removal brush across the optical surface when configured to do so.

Why choose this product

  • Remote NB-IoT connectivity - Sends distance measurements directly to an NB-IoT server without requiring a local wired data connection.
  • LiDAR distance measurement - Provides non-contact measurement using laser-based sensing.
  • Auto-cleaning optical surface - The built-in brush mechanism is designed to help remove dust from the optical mirror.
  • Long-term battery operation - Uses a built-in 8500/19000mAh Li-SOCl2 | Solar panel + 3000mAh Li-ion battery | 1000 mAh rechargeable Li-ion battery for applications requiring extended field operation.
  • Flexible IoT communication - Supports MQTT, MQTTS, UDP, TCP and CoAP uplink methods.
  • Remote configuration - Bluetooth 5.1 can be used for configuration and firmware updates, while downlink communication supports configuration changes.

Benefits

It can reduce the need for local cabling when distance information needs to be collected from remote monitoring points. Its combination of LiDAR measurement, NB-IoT communication and battery operation allows measured data to be incorporated into remote monitoring systems.

The auto-cleaning mechanism is also useful where dust accumulation around the optical surface could otherwise require more frequent manual attention.
