It may seem trivial, but LiDAR has numerous applications beyond simply scanning your cat. For example, you can mount it on an RC car and have it scan its surroundings to create a 3D map of its ...

You've got a LiDAR scanner if you've got an iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max, or an iPad Pro, but Apple doesn't appear to give you any way to use it. Here's how you can, what you need, and why ...

That lightbulb moment for Cusick led to a multi-year effort to use a lidar scanner to unobtrusively estimate the volumes (and, through that, the weights) of some bears at Katmai as they fatten up ...

If you’re still looking for some more inspiration, we’ve seen other LIDAR room scanners before, too. Posted in classic hacks, Robots Hacks Tagged 3d scanner, lidar, lidar scanner, room scanner.

Although there are plenty of methods for effectively imaging a 3D space, LIDAR is widely regarded as one of the most effective methods. These systems use a rapid succession of laser pulses over a w… ...

Lidar sensors add depth scanning for better photos and AR, but in future we could see mixed-reality headsets and more. I started with CNET reviewing laptops in 2009. Now I explore wearable tech ...

Scanner Sombre uses the same sort of lidar tech, but is a bit heavier on upfront narrative. Here, the player awakens in a tent that’s pitched inside a humongous pitch black cave system.

The LiDAR scanner then uses all of that information to create a really detailed 3D picture of everything it can "see" with its laser beams. It's kind of like taking a really fancy picture, ...

What is LiDAR? The concept behind LiDAR has been around since the 1960s. In short, the tech lets you scan and map your environment by firing out laser beams, then timing how quickly they return.
