Usual caveat that you'll only get headline performance at 80% reflectivity, maybe a number plate? Also the IP67 rating system doesn't cover the cooling system (

Usual caveat that you'll only get headline performance at 80% reflectivity, maybe a number plate? Also the IP67 rating system doesn't cover the cooling system (only IP55). Hokuyo 2D systems start from about $1k and are well regarded in researcher. SICK systems were historically used on research autonomous vehicles (eg the grand challenges), but they're far too heavy for drone use. Edit - I thought it was 1D initially, apparently the scan pattern is circular, think spirograph (or a lissajous). You'd normally do this with galvos, but this seems to be solid state.
