TFmini Plus, based on TFmini, is a single-point short-range LiDAR sensor. Inherited characters of low cost, small size and low power consumption from TFmini, TFmini Plus has greatly improved its performance — increasing the measurement frequency, reducing blind zone, improving accuracy and stability.

Meanwhile, TFmini Plus introduces IP65 enclosures and optimizes various compensation algorithms, which has greatly expanded its application fields and scenarios.

Overview

Smaller Blind Zone, Higher Frame Rate, Enclosure Rate IP65

TFmini Plus, based on TFmini, is a single-point short-range LiDAR uart. Inherited low cost, small size, and low power consumption from TFmini, TFmini Plus has greatly improved the overall performance — increasing frame rate, narrowing blind zone, and improving accuracy. Meanwhile, TFmini Plus introduces IP65 enclosures and optimizes various compensation algorithms, which will greatly expand its application fields and scenarios.

Small yet Powerful

Inheriting TFmini's design concept – 'Small Yet Powerful', TFmini Plus, as large as a man's thumb, has greatly improved the overall performance. The frame rate can reach 1000Hz. The blind zone narrows down to 10cm. And the lowest power consumption is 85mW.

Safe & Stable

Distinguished from TFmini — Open form module, TFmini Plus has been designed with IP65 enclosures, and also passed the vibration test of drone level, which will greatly expand its application range. To improve the applicability, TFmini Plus supports Pix and customization output format and provides common communication interfaces — UART, I/O, and I2C.

Applications

Dist(Distance):

Represents the output of the distance value detected by TFmini Plus, with the unit in cm by default. This value is interpreted into the decimal value in the range of 0-1200. When the signal strength is lower than 100 or equal to 65535, the detection is unreliable, TFmini Plus will set distance value to 0.

Strength：

Represents the signal strength with the default value in the range of 0-65535. After the distance mode is set, the longer the measurement distance is, the lower the signal strength will be; the lower the reflectivity is, the lower the signal strength will be. When the signal strength is lower than 100 or equal to 65535, the detection is unreliable, TFmini Plus will set distance value to 0.

Temp(Temperature):

Represents the chip temperature of TFmini Plus. Degree centigrade = Temp / 8 -256
