Velodyne Puck LITE Lidar Sensor
Specialized Excellence
Velodyne LiDAR’s Puck LITE™ is a lighter-weight version of the VLP-16 PUCK for applications that demand a lower weight to meet their requirements. The Puck LITE™ has identical performance to VLP-16 with the only difference in weight of 590 g vs. 830 g for the latter. No other changes have been made to Puck LITE™ as it retains its patented 360° surround view to capture real-time 3D LiDAR data that includes distance and calibrated reflectivity measurements.
The Puck LITE has a range of 100 m with dual return mode to capture greater detail in the 3D image with low power consumption. A compact footprint and an industry-leading weight for a LiDAR sensor with high resolution make it ideal for UAV/drone and mobile applications in the areas of 3D mapping/imaging, inspection, and navigation.
The Puck LITE supports 16 channels and generates approximately 300,000 points/second from a 360° horizontal field of view and a 30° vertical field of view (±15° from the horizon) The Puck LITE has no visible rotating parts and is encapsulated in a package that allows it to operate over a wide temperature range and environmental conditions.
Velodyne’s Lightest Sensor Ever
This compact, the lightweight sensor delivers the ideal resolution and performance for UAV/drone and mobile applications.
Dual Returns
Velodyne sensors support a dual return mode that enables lidar applications to more accurately capture the details of complex environments, such as forests, infrastructure and buildings, which contain scattered small objects and non-opaque surfaces. A significant advantage over single returns alone, providing the user with multiple returns greatly increases the number of useable points available to map or navigate any setting. This feature enables Velodyne’s sensors to deliver the precise 3D image data needed for insights to advance efficiency, safety, sustainability and more.
Real-Time 3D LiDAR
The VLP-16 has a range of 100 m, and the sensor’s low power consumption (~8 W), light weight (830 g), compact footprint (~Ø103 mm x 72 mm), and dual return capability make it ideal not only for autonomous vehicles but also robotics and mobile terrestrial 3D mapping applications.
Velodyne’s LiDAR Puck supports 16 channels, ~300,000 points/second, 360° horizontal field of view and a 30° vertical field of view, with ±15° up and down. The Velodyne LiDAR Puck does not have visible rotating parts, making it highly resilient in challenging environments (Rated IP67) while operating over a wide temperature range (-10°C to +60°C).
Patented Surround View Technology
The Puck, built on Velodyne’s ‘558 patent, provides a full 360-degree environmental view to deliver accurate real-time 3D data.
