Silent,nonrotatingalternativetolaserLiDARscanners
TeraRanger Tower is a simultaneous
multiaxis scanner capable of
replacing traditional laser lidar
scanners in some applications. It is
totally silent and has zero moving
parts, resulting in greater efficiency
and reliability. It combines 8
TeraRanger One sensors and the
TeraRanger Hub to create a
lightweight, fully eyesafe scanner for
Simultaneous Localisation and
Mapping (SLAM) and collision
avoidance on fastmoving ground and
airborne robots. Calibrated distance
data is streamed from a USB or  
UART port as an array of
synchroniseddistances,inmillimetres.
TeraRanger Tower is sold as a selfassembly kit and takes less than 10 minutes to build. A  
tutorial video and user manual are available on our website, and a scan format ROS (Robot
Operating System) node will get you up and running quickly. A free Windows GUI is also
available, allowing you to to see graphically the distance values being obtained and set  
