Top URG
HOKUYO
At the top of the range is the UTM-30LX. Considering the UTM-30LX has a size profile comparable to a standard credit card its ability to map objects up to 30m away is remarkable. Addionally response time and scan window are unparalleled.
The main specifications are: supply voltage 12 V, measurement distance 30 m, field view 270° and interface USB.
The main features are: Long detection range (30 m), wide angle (270°), designed for use also in outdoor environment, extremly compact and light-weight (60x60x87mm, 370g).
Its slightly bigger brother UTM-30LX-EW (Top Ether), which is operated via Ethernet, has similar characteristics but also IP67 and multi-echo support.
