Velodyne Puck

Velodyne’s VLP-16 sensor is the smallest, newest and most advanced production Velodyne’s 3D LiDAR product range. Vastly more cost-effective than similarly priced sensors and developed with mass production in mind, it retains the key features of Velodyne’s breakthroughs in LiDAR: Real-time, 360°, 3D distance and calibrated reflectivity measurements.

The VLP-16 has a range of 100m, and the sensor’s low power consumption (~8W), lightweight (500-gram or 830-gram options available), compact footprint (~Ø103mm x 72mm), and dual return capability make it ideal for UAVs and other mobile applications.

Velodyne’s LiDAR VLP-16 supports 16 channels, ~300,000 points/sec, a 360° horizontal field of view and a 30° vertical field of view, with /- 15° up and down. The Velodyne VLP-16 does not have visible rotating parts, making it highly resilient in challenging environments (Rated IP67).

Single VLP16 (Velodyne 16) is being used for map based localization in fusion with IMU/Wheel-Encoder and prior 3D map (build using pose graph SLAM). A step towards low-cost localization.

First experiment with the Velodyne VLP-16 LiDAR ‘Puck’ mounted on a brushless gimbal on a Devourer X8 heavy-lift multi-rotor UAV.
