sweep v1.0
 Cost efficient design
 Operates in full sunlight
 Low power consumption
 Wide field of view
 Small footprint
 Simple serial connectivity
 Long Range
CAUTION
This device contains a component which emits laser radiation. The
laser product is designated Class 1 during all operating modes.
This means that the laser is safe to look at with the unaided eye,
however it is advisable to not look directly into the beam when in
use.
When connecting a Sweep sensor to a 5VDC power source, it
should be limited to a maximum of 8A as defined in EN 60950-1,
sub clause 2.5, Table 2B.

    Specification Value Range 40 m (131ft) (75% reflective target) Resolution 1 cm (0.4 in) Range in Centimeters Update Rate Up to 1075Hz (see (75% reflective target) “Theory of Operation”) Figure 3, Sweep Accuracy Graphs Copyright ©2014-2017 Scanse LLC - www.scanse.io...
  • Page 3 If Sweep is rotationally jerked hard enough, it can cause the motor to lose sync, which will trigger a momentary motor pause, and then restart. DRAWINGS ARE NOT TO SCALE Figure 6, Sweep Connector Diagram Copyright ©2014-2017 Scanse LLC - www.scanse.io...
  • Page 4 Sweep uses an optical encoder to measure the angle of the rotating sensor head. The angle that is recorded for a range data point is the angle the sensor is at when the measurement is completed. Copyright ©2014-2017 Scanse LLC - www.scanse.io...
  • Page 5 You can download the Sweep visualizer at www.scanse.io/downloads The purpose of the Scanse visualizer is to provide a way to quickly evaluate Sweep’s performance in your application/environment. For some applications, like surveying, our visualizer can be used to take quick measurements between range data points within a scan.
