LightWare LW20/C (100 m) MicroLiDAR - Serial UART & I2C Interface, IP67
The LightWare LW20/C MicroLiDAR is a compact, long-range laser rangefinder offering up to 100 meters of detection range. It features dual Serial UART and I2C interfaces (3.3V TTL, 5V tolerant) for seamless integration with flight controllers like PX4 and ArduPilot, as well as Arduino and Raspberry Pi platforms.
Features
- Long-range laser detection up to 100 meters for obstacle avoidance and altitude measurement.
- Ultra-compact and lightweight design: 30 x 20 x 43 mm and only 19 grams.
- IP67-rated enclosure ensures dust and water resistance for reliable outdoor operation.
- Dual communication interfaces: configurable Serial UART and I2C with 3.3V/5V logic compatibility.
- Configurable update rate from 48 to 5000 readings per second for flexible performance tuning.

The LightWare LW20/C MicroLiDAR employs a 905nm Class 1M eye-safe laser for precise time-of-flight (ToF) distance measurement. Its robust IP67-rated housing protects the internal optics from dust and water ingress, making it suitable for demanding aerial and mobile robotic applications. The sensor outputs both first and last return signals simultaneously, providing enhanced data for complex environmental mapping.
Designed for low-power, high-performance integration, it operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V DC supply. The configurable update rate allows optimization for either high-speed dynamic sensing or lower-power, precision altitude hold. Its small form factor and minimal weight make it the de facto standard for micro drones and UAVs requiring reliable long-range sensing.
