1. Product Description

TFmini Plus is a milestone of Benewake in the process of promoting the cost-effective -LiDAR.
Apart from low-cost, small-size and low-power-consumption, TFmini Plus also improves the
frame rate, introduces IP65 enclosures and optimizes various compensation algorithms. These
new characters greatly expand the application fields and scenarios of TFmini Plus.

①   Range based on a standard whiteboard with reflectivity 90% in indoor condition
②   Only frame rates meet the formula – 1000/n (n is positive integer) can be set.
③   This is the theoretical number,the is some offset for the real number.
