Details

The VANJEE WLR-722 delivers 32-line mechanical scanning with a 360° view and wide 62° vertical field of view for reliable 3D perception.

Core features include TOF ranging, Ethernet output, IP67 protection, built-in IMU support, and development tooling for ROS workflows.

A side-by-side comparison helps confirm the WLR-722’s key parameters before integration into a robot or vehicle platform.

A standard adapter cable combines power, Ethernet networking, and an external GPS interface to simplify bench testing and deployment wiring.

Designed for robots and low-speed autonomous driving, the sensor supports mapping, navigation, and obstacle awareness across indoor and outdoor tasks.

ROS-SDK availability shortens development time for teams building perception pipelines and sensor drivers in ROS/ROS2 environments.

Pre-adapted mapping/navigation routines help teams validate SLAM and route planning more quickly in a ROS setup.

Multiple 3D mapping algorithm options support different SLAM strategies depending on environment complexity and compute budget.

Autoware.Universe compatibility supports autonomous driving research stacks that rely on standardized modules and workflows.

Time-of-Flight measurement calculates distance by timing the laser pulse travel and return, enabling consistent ranging for 3D point clouds.

A 32-channel scan pattern with broad vertical coverage improves detection of near-ground and elevated obstacles during motion.

The built-in 6-axis IMU helps reduce motion-induced distortion, improving mapping stability on uneven ground or during acceleration changes.

IP67 sealing and a closed outer cover help protect the rotating mechanism for stable operation in wet or dusty environments.

A Class 1, eye-safe laser design supports use in shared spaces where people and pets may be nearby during testing or operation.

Up to 40 meters of ranging supports earlier obstacle awareness and smoother path planning for larger indoor areas and outdoor routes.

Windows client software lets you view and validate 360° point cloud output during setup, calibration, and field testing.

Optional shielding angles allow masking of occluded or unwanted sectors to better match sensor placement and vehicle geometry.

Typical applications include warehouse robots, research platforms, logistics scheduling systems, and autonomous vehicle prototypes.
