FAQ
How do I choose the right SPD model?
Use the three-step wizard above, or download the laser rangefinder module selection guide.
What is single photon technology?
It is a high-sensitivity detection method used in our 905nm single photon laser rangefinder modules for precise ToF ranging.
What is the difference between SPD1200N0 and SPD1200N2?
SPD1200N0 is cylindrical with a sealing groove for sealed integration and supports nighttime range up to 1500 m. SPD1200N2 is a flat rectangular module with PMMA optics for cost-effective, slim devices.
Is SPD1200N3 a laser pointer?
No. It is a laser rangefinder module with visible red dot indication for target acquisition. It is not a laser pointer or red dot sight.
Why is SPD1200Z2 more accurate?
It uses aspherical lens optics and supports ±0.2m accuracy within 200m, making it a high speed high precision laser rangefinder module.
Can SPD1200S2G output angle data?
Yes. It integrates a 6-axis IMU and provides Roll, Pitch, and Yaw output, making it a true distance and angle sensor module.
Is the module compatible with Arduino?
Yes via UART-TTL. Please ensure 3.3V logic compatibility or use a level shifter.
Do you support OEM customization?
Yes. Interface, baud rate, housing, and range can be customized. Contact us for details.
Is the laser eye-safe?
Yes, all modules comply with IEC Class 1 safety standards.
