YDLIDAR GS5 Linear Array Solid-State LiDAR (70~1000mm, 85° FOV, 0.54° Resolution)

Wide Application Compatibility

The GS5’s 85° FOV provides broad coverage for comprehensive obstacle mapping, while its 70mm minimum blind zone ensures accurate close-range detection. The included Point Cloud Viewer software offers real-time visualization, data logging, and debugging, simplifying system integration and testing.

Solid-State Design for Reliability

The YDLIDAR GS5 employs a solid-state construction with no moving parts, eliminating mechanical wear and ensuring a remarkable service life of 10,000 hours. Its compact dimensions (48.5×25×13.5mm) allow seamless integration into space-constrained applications, while Class I eye-safe operation ensures safe deployment in consumer and industrial environments.

High-Precision Distance Measurement

With an exceptional angular resolution of 0.54°, the GS5 can detect objects as small as 6mm in diameter. It delivers multi-stage accuracy, maintaining ≤3% error within 70-300mm, ≤5% at 300-600mm, and ≤8% up to 1000mm. The sensor's stable performance under varying lighting conditions (resisting up to 25klux sunlight) ensures reliable operation in diverse environments.

Flexible System Integration

The sensor communicates via a standard UART interface, ensuring compatibility with microcontrollers, PLCs, and computers. The included USB adapter enables immediate PC connection for evaluation, while sensor chaining capability allows up to 3 units to operate on a single UART line. Additionally, a Linux SDK is available for developers to build custom applications.
