Frequently Asked Questions

What is the communication interface of the T-mini Plus LiDAR and how do I connect it to a Raspberry Pi?

The T-mini Plus outputs distance data via a UART serial protocol, which is accessible through its onboard USB Type-C port. To connect to a Raspberry Pi, simply use the included USB Type-C cable. The sensor will appear as a serial device (e.g., /dev/ttyUSB0). You can then use the provided YDLIDAR SDK or ROS drivers to read the scanning data directly.

What is the minimum and maximum measurable distance, and how is accuracy affected?

The sensor has a very short blind spot of 0.05m and can reliably detect objects up to 12 meters away under conditions of 80% reflectivity. The specified ranging accuracy is ±20mm (±3cm) across the entire 0.12m to 12m operating range. Performance at the maximum range can be affected by target reflectivity and ambient light, though the sensor has strong 60kLux immunity.

Is this LiDAR sensor safe to use around people and pets?

Yes. The T-mini Plus uses an infrared pulsed laser that is classified as FDA Class I and complies with the IEC60825-1 safety standard. This is the safest laser classification, meaning it is not considered hazardous under normal conditions of use and is safe for operation in environments with human and animal presence.

Does it support ROS (Robot Operating System), and what scan frequencies are available?

Yes, the T-mini Plus has official, well-supported drivers for both ROS and ROS2, which are included in its SDK. The sensor's scan frequency is configurable between 5Hz and 10Hz, allowing you to balance between data refresh rate and processing load based on your specific application requirements.
