YDLIDAR G2 360° 2D LiDAR Sensor Module with USB Adapter Board

The G2 module itself uses optical and magnetic fusion for wireless data and power transfer within its housing. For connection to a host system like a PC or Raspberry Pi, it interfaces via the included USB adapter board, which provides a standard USB Type-C output for power and data communication.

The YDLIDAR G2 has a maximum detection distance of 12 meters. It performs distance measurements at a very high frequency of 5000 times per second (5000Hz), while the physical scanner rotates at a motor frequency of 12Hz to provide full 360° coverage.

Yes. The YDLIDAR G2's laser output meets the Class I laser safety standard, which is the safest classification. It is considered eye-safe under normal operating conditions, making it suitable for use in environments where incidental exposure to people is possible.

The G2 outputs 2D point cloud data. As it rotates, it continuously provides distance measurements paired with their corresponding angle (0-360°). This real-time stream of angle and range data is used to create a map of the surrounding environment.

The module requires a 5.2V DC supply and draws an operating current of approximately 500mA. This power is typically supplied through the included USB adapter board, which can be connected to a standard USB power source or port on a computer or development board.
