MicoAir MT-01p LiDAR Range Sensor

The MicoAir MT-01P is a compact Time-of-Flight (ToF) LiDAR rangefinder designed for precision altitude sensing on multirotor platforms. By providing highly accurate distance measurements independent of barometric pressure shifts, it is an essential upgrade for builders setting up reliable terrain following, automated precision landings, and rock-solid low-altitude height hold on ArduPilot or INAV-equipped drones.

Key features

• Dedicated LiDAR ranging for dependable terrain following and precision altitude hold.
• Dual interface support with both Serial (UART) and I2C output options for flexible flight controller wiring.
• Lightweight and ultra-compact form factor that easily integrates into tight camera rigs, autonomous agriculture drones or custom builds.
• Immune to the propwash and airflow variations that typically disrupt standard barometers.

Specifications

• Brand: MicoAir
• Sensor Type: Time-of-Flight (ToF) LiDAR Rangefinder
