Product overview

The Meskernel PTFS-100 uses optical pulse ranging with a 905nm Class 1 laser and a high-speed optical amplifier. Its measurement range is 3-100m, with ±1m accuracy and a ranging frequency of 400HZ. The module operates at 3.3V with a current of 100mA and a baud rate of 115200 bps. Interface options include digital, CAN, analog, serial, RS-232, RS-485 and I²C. Signal processing algorithms support stable ranging in complex environments.

For drone applications, the PTFS-100 measures distances to obstacles in real time and measures ground distance to support stable flight altitude and trajectory. It also supports vehicle-to-obstacle distance detection in autonomous driving and positioning and target-distance measurement in industrial and service robots. Warehouse applications include monitoring goods positions and stacking heights. The module is packaged in a paper box, with single-package dimensions of 9.2cm*5.4cm*3.3cm, and carries a one-year warranty.
