Description

The Benewake TF02-Pro is an upgraded single-point LiDAR sensor engineered for reliable, high-frequency distance measurement. It utilizes time-of-flight (ToF) technology to deliver stable and accurate ranging data, even under challenging lighting conditions with ambient light levels up to 100,000 lux. The sensor’s performance is significantly improved over its predecessor, particularly at low reflectivity targets, making it suitable for diverse and unpredictable environments.

Designed for system-level integration, the TF02-Pro operates from a 5V to 12V DC supply and communicates via UART or I2C protocols, providing flexibility for embedded platforms like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, and industrial PLCs. Its compact, IP65-rated enclosure ensures protection against dust and water jets, supporting deployment in outdoor robotics, UAVs, and automated traffic systems where environmental durability is critical.

Key Features

  • Extended & Accurate Ranging: Measures distances from 5 cm to 40 meters with high precision (±5cm up to 5m, ±1% beyond).
  • High-Speed Data Output: Delivers distance data at a configurable frame rate up to 100Hz for real-time control applications.
  • Robust Environmental Design: IP65 protection rating and an operating temperature range of -20°C to 60°C ensure reliable operation outdoors.
  • Multi-Interface Flexibility: Supports UART (serial), I2C, and digital I/O for easy connection to microcontrollers and single-board computers.
  • Superior Ambient Light Rejection: Maintains ranging stability and extended range even under intense sunlight up to 100Klux.
  • Optimized Power Profile: Features low average power consumption (<1W) and a wide input voltage range (5-12V DC) for battery-powered devices.
  • Compact & Lightweight Build: Small form factor (69 x 41.5 x 26 mm) and light weight (~50g with cable) enable integration into mobile platforms.
  • Narrow Field of View: A focused 3-degree field of view provides precise, targeted distance measurements.

Applications

  • Drone & UAV Navigation: Altitude hold, terrain following, and precision landing for aerial vehicles.
  • Robotic Obstacle Avoidance: Front-facing collision detection for autonomous mobile robots and AGVs operating outdoors.
  • Intelligent Traffic Systems: Vehicle presence detection, height profiling for barrier gates, and parking space monitoring.
  • Industrial Level Monitoring: Non-contact measurement of material levels in silos, bins, or tanks.
  • Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) Positioning: Precise docking and position sensing within warehouses or logistics centers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between UART and I2C communication on the TF02-Pro?

The TF02-Pro supports both UART (serial) and I2C communication protocols. UART is typically used for simple, point-to-point connections with configurable baud rates, while I2C allows multiple sensors to be daisy-chained on the same bus using unique addresses. You select the active interface via a configuration command or a physical solder Jumper, depending on the specific module version.

How does the TF02-Pro perform in bright sunlight or against dark objects?

The TF02-Pro is engineered for high ambient light resistance up to 100,000 lux, minimizing performance degradation in direct sunlight. Its upgraded optics and signal processing also improve performance on low-reflectivity (dark) targets, maintaining a usable range of up to 13.5 meters at 10% reflectivity, which is a significant improvement over previous models.

What is the power requirement, and can it be powered by a 3.3V logic system?

The sensor requires a supply voltage between 5V and 12V DC. It cannot be powered directly from a 3.3V rail. However, its communication lines (UART TX/RX or I2C SDA/SCL) are 3.3V logic compatible, allowing it to interface directly with 3.3V microcontrollers like the ESP32 or Raspberry Pi without level shifters.

Does the sensor require calibration, and how is the data output formatted?

The TF02-Pro is factory-calibrated and does not require user calibration. It outputs distance data in a structured packet format over UART or I2C. The standard data frame includes a header, command, distance value (in centimeters or millimeters), signal strength, and a checksum for validation, ensuring reliable data transmission.

Is the provided cable detachable, and what is the pinout?

Yes, the sensor comes with an 80cm detachable cable. The standard pinout includes wires for VCC (5-12V), GND, and the communication lines (TX, RX for UART; SDA, SCL for I2C). The specific wiring diagram is provided in the product datasheet, and the interface mode can often be selected by connecting or leaving certain pins open.
