The LDA scanner uses a time-of-flight measurement method to calculate target range, and couples the range measurement with an angle measurement to create a polar co-ordinate position.

A complete circular profile is created as the LDA head rotates a full 360° at a 10Hz rate.

As an option, the LDA contains an integrated DSP processor allowing online profile evaluation and interfacing over a special CAN Bus I/F. The DSP can be programmed to support form, volume and movement applications.

The LDA covers an area within a 40m radius onto dark targets (eg: dark walls of a tunnel), and 100m onto light targets over an angular range of up to 360°. If the application requires the sensor to self-test, the angluar range is limited to 300° to allow a 60° internal self-test check area.
