In recent years, with the development of smart cars and mobile robots, LiDAR, serving as the "eyes," has also achieved significant progress. However, the applications of LiDAR are not limited to smart cars and mobile robots; there are still many more potential use cases to explore. This article will categorize and summarize the specific applications of LiDAR.
Industrial manufacturing
The application of LiDAR in industry and manufacturing primarily focuses on mobile robots and industrial automation processes.
In the field of industrial automation, to reduce staffing and improve efficiency, most enterprises have begun introducing automated production lines and establishing intelligent workshops. This trend has also extended to subsequent warehousing and logistics sectors, where companies have deployed automated handling robots for warehouse management, achieving automated operations. This process is inseparable from LiDAR technology.
During the production process, the XT-L301 LiDAR can assist in monitoring materials on conveyor equipment. By installing the XT-L301 LiDAR at the center of the support frame's beam, it rapidly scans materials on the conveyor belt during measurement and transmits the scanned data along with information such as belt speed and width to a computer, effectively ensuring smooth workflow on the conveyor.
