The MultiSense SL is a tri-modal (laser, 3D stereo, and video), high-resolution, high-data-rate, and high-accuracy 3D range sensor. The sensor is suitable for use in a wide variety of robotics, automation, and sensing applications, such as autonomous vehicles, 3D mapping, and workspace understanding. The MultiSense SL has a rugged, compact housing, along with a low-power FPGA processor, and is pre-calibrated at the factory.
