Global Robotics
TFA300-L is the unenclosed module in the TFA300 single-point LiDAR family for UAV integration. Its datasheet lists 290 m at 90% reflectivity under 100 klux and a typical mass of 10.5 g. The host must provide environmental and optical protection. The shared datasheet connector is listed as six pin, whereas the manual assigns a seven-pin connector to TFA300-L; exact revision applicability is unresolved. Both forms support configurable output up to 10000 Hz with the manual’s high-rate communication requirements; this does not establish maximum range at maximum rate.

We store your privacy choices in this browser so we can respect them. This essential preference includes the policy version, your choices, and when you made them; it is not sent to an analytics service. Hosting and security logs are separate from these browser settings.
With your consent, “Remember my selections” stores comparisons and followed companies and products in this browser. These are not synced to an account or shared with Google or OneSignal by our integration. Without consent, these features still work for the current page session.
Turning this option off deletes saved selections from local storage. Current selections remain in memory until you reload or close the page.

Google processes online identifiers, cookie identifiers, browser and device information, general page categories, and usage events.

Our integration uses general page categories rather than search terms, full query strings, or individual company and product identifiers. With analytics consent, we also measure visits attributed to recognized AI services and confirmed Connect requests from those visits. We send a fixed provider label and page category, without sending the original referral URL or form contents. Attribution lasts only within the current page session and may be incomplete. We do not send application form contents, names, or email addresses to Analytics. Advertising consent remains off; Google signals and advertising personalization are disabled in our integration.
