Product overview
The Hi-Target ARS-450 is a lightweight LiDAR payload developed for multirotor UAV surveying. Its architecture combines laser ranging with an in-house inertial navigation system, with camera-equipped and camera-free configurations weighing 1.1kg and 0.9kg respectively. The camera configuration has 24 million pixels and a 16mm focal length. Integration provisions include adaptation to different UAV types and support for third-party custom development. System power consumption is 18W, and the equipment has an IP45 protection rating.
The ARS-450 supports real-time point-cloud viewing in true color or colored by reflectivity or elevation, with LAS/LAZ output for subsequent processing. Dedicated software supports data acquisition, processing, analysis and customized reporting, while a base-station-free operating mode expands deployment options. Range depends on target reflectivity and illumination: 450m applies at 80% reflectivity and 0 klx, falling to 190m at 10% reflectivity and 100klx. System accuracy is specified at 50m, with 10cm horizontal and 5cm elevation accuracy.
