Description

The Meskernel LDJ-150 utilizes a phase-shift laser measurement principle to deliver highly accurate distance data over an extended 0.03 to 150-meter range. Its core technology involves modulating the phase of a safe, Class II red laser beam and calculating distance based on the phase difference of the reflected signal, providing superior stability and precision compared to simple time-of-flight methods.

Engineered for system integration, the sensor outputs data via configurable serial interfaces (USART/RS232/RS485) at 3.3V TTL levels, ensuring direct compatibility with a wide array of microcontrollers, single-board computers, and industrial data acquisition systems. Its compact, lightweight housing is designed for reliable performance in demanding environments, supporting applications from autonomous vehicle navigation to construction site monitoring.

Key Features

  • Phase-shift laser technology ensures high measurement accuracy (±3 mm) and long-range stability.
  • Configurable serial communication (USART/RS232/RS485) provides flexible integration with control systems.
  • 20 Hz measurement frequency enables real-time distance tracking for dynamic applications.
  • Wide operating temperature range (-20°C to +55°C) guarantees performance in industrial and outdoor settings.
  • Low-power Class II visible red laser (<1 mW, 610-690 nm) allows for safe and precise visual targeting.
  • Compact and lightweight design (17 x 11 x 2 cm) facilitates easy mounting on mobile platforms like AGVs and drones.
  • Dual measurement modes (single/continuous) offer operational flexibility for different use-case scenarios.

Applications

  • Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) and Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) navigation and obstacle detection.
  • Construction site surveying, volume calculation, and structural displacement monitoring.
  • Industrial automation for precise positioning, bin level sensing, and conveyor belt monitoring.
  • UAV and drone-based aerial mapping, terrain following, and altitude hold systems.
  • Security and perimeter intrusion detection systems requiring long-range, precise measurement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What communication interfaces does the LDJ-150 sensor support?

The LDJ-150 supports multiple serial communication protocols: USART (3.3V TTL), RS232, and RS485. This allows direct connection to microcontrollers (like STM32 or ESP32), PCs via USB-to-serial adapters, or integration into industrial networks using Modbus over RS485. The logic level for the USART interface is 3.3V.

What is the difference between single and continuous measurement modes?

In single measurement mode, the sensor takes one distance reading per command, ideal for triggered events. Continuous mode outputs distance readings at a fixed 20 Hz frequency, providing real-time data streams suitable for dynamic tracking applications like robot navigation or live monitoring systems. The mode is typically selected via serial command.

Is the laser safe for use, and what is its wavelength?

Yes, the sensor uses a Class II visible red laser with a power output of less than 1 mW, which is considered eye-safe for incidental exposure. The laser wavelength ranges from 610 nm to 690 nm, producing a visible red dot that aids in precise targeting and alignment during setup and operation.

What is the operating voltage and how do I power the sensor?

The sensor's communication logic level is 3.3V, but the main power supply voltage is typically 5V DC (common for USB-TTL operation). Please check the sensor's specific power input pins. It is designed for integration with standard 5V microcontroller systems or via the provided USB-to-TTL interface for PC-connected applications.
