The RPLIDAR A2M12 is the 360 degree 2D laser scanner (LIDAR) solution developed by SLAMTEC. It can take up to 16000 samples of laser ranging per second thanks to its high rotation speed. The on-board system can perform 2D 360° scans within a range of 12 meters.
The core of RPLIDAR A2 runs clockwise to perform a 360 degree omnidirectional laser range scanning for its surrounding environment and then generate an outline map for the environment.
The RPLIDAR A2 consists of a range scanner core and mechanical powering parts which makes the core rotate at a high speed. When it functions normally, the scanner will rotate and scan clockwise allowing you to be able to get the range scan data via the communication interface of the RPLIDAR and control the start, stop and rotating speed of the rotation motor via PWM. The typical scanning frequency of the RPLIDAR A2 360° Laser Scanner is 10hz (600rpm) with an actual scanning frequency that can be freely adjusted within the 5-15hz range.
The RPLIDAR A2 adopts a laser triangulation measurement system developed by SLAMTEC, which makes the RPLIDAR A2 have excellent performance in multiple indoor and outdoor environments. With the low noise brushless motor and OPTMAG technology, the RPLIDAR has a ultra-long life.
SLAMTEC provides RoboStudio, a real-time monitoring tool and SDK (available for Windows, MacOS, x86 Linux and Arm Linux) to speed up the product development.

The core of RPLIDAR A2 runs clockwise to perform a 360-degree omnidirectional laser range scanning for its surrounding environment and then generate an outline map for the environment.
4cm Ultra-thin
With the custom special parts and the carefully designed internal mechanical system, the RPLIDAR A2 keeps its excellent performance while cut the thickness to only 4cm. It is ideal for all kinds of service robots.
The sample rate of LIDAR directly decides whether the robot can map quickly and accurately.
RPLIDAR improves the internal optical design and algorithm system to make the sample rate up to 8000 times, which is the highest in the current economical LIDAR industry.
360-degree laser range scanning
The core of RPLIDAR A2 runs clockwise to perform a 360-degree omnidirectional laser range scanning for its surrounding environment and then generate an outline map for the environment.
Low Noise, Brushless Motor New Non-contact Drive
Compared with the traditional belt drive mode, RPLIDAR A2 uses the self-designed brushless motor to reduce mechanical friction in running. Therefore, the RPLIDAR A2 can run smoothly without any noise.
16m/12m Range Radius
With algorithm optimization, RPLIDAR improves the range radius 16 meters, which will provide more data due to a larger environmental outline map.
OPTMAG Original Design
Most traditional non-solid LIDARs use slip ring to transfer power and data information, however, they only have thousands of hours of life due to mechanical wearing out. Slamtec has integrated wireless power and optical communication technology to self-design the OPTMAG technology, which breakouts the life limitation of the traditional LIDAR systems. It fixes the electrical connection failure caused by the physical wearing out so as to prolong the lifespan.
Safety Standard
The RPLIDAR A2 system adopts low-power infrared laser light as its light source and drives it by using modulated pulse. The laser emits light in a very short time frame which can ensure its safety for humans and pets. It has already reached the Class 1 Safety Standard.
Measures Distance Data 8000 Times Per Second
RPLIDAR A2 adopts the laser triangulation ranging principle, and with a high-speed RPVision3.0 range engine, it measures distance data 8000 times per second and also has excellent performance in a long distances.
Five years ultra-long life
With brushless motor and OPTMAG technology, the RPLIDAR will work for 5 years(24 hours every day).

APPLICATIONS
The Secret for a Freely Walking Robot
Matched solution for robot autonomous localization and navigation
RPLIDAR A2 as the core sensor, can quickly get the outline infomation of the environment.
Integrating the RPLIDAR A2 with SLAMWARE in robot, the robot can build maps,autonomously,find path in real time and avoid obstacles automatically.
Multi-point Touch and Man-machine Interaction
Compared with traditional technology, with infrared laser device, the RPLIDAR A2 can realize the multi-point touch on a super-large screen, which has a higher resolution, reacts quickly and resists ambient light.
Robot simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)
The shipment delivery was fast and efficient. They even called me before shipping the order to let me know when the order will be dispatched and estimated time of arrival. Very happy with their service.
