"I have tested lidars but ther fail to work in outdoor enviroments.
For taking one reading per second you can use Laser Distance Meter at $30"
"@Onno - We have made good progress with this so if you are interested in running tests for us please contact info@lightware.co.za and give Tracy some idea of your application and ask her to add you to the demo list ;)."
"@Laser Developer
I am interested whether there is any update on its performance above water surfaces due to possible purchase for height measurements above the sea surface."
"Thank you Stephan."
"Thanks @Nadia. As the author of this hack, let me please add to this- you will get visual and voice feedback on the Solex app in all flight modes once the Lidar detects an obstacle. BRAKE mode is entered only in GPS assisted modes with the exception…"
"@Robert, yes, we remember your project well. The video is linked to our Youtube channel under Customer Applications.
They tested it in all flight modes except LAND or RTL."
"Cool, looking forward to this.
We have done oru first tests on this in 2016 with the rangefinder SF33 T/B from Lightware.
Check: Film on youtube
May I ask you in which flight modes you have been testing it?
Thanks Robert"
Obstacle Avoidance for 3DR Solo using LightWare LW20

between SF11-C Laser Rangefinder 120 m and SF02 Laser Rangefinder 50 m. which will provide better refinement of distance and xyz in the computer system

Dear Ojogbane,
The SF11/C offers you better accuracy and range than the SF02/F.
We regard the SF02/F as a hobby or educational product.
I hope this helps you.
Nadia
