Optical Window

To make the RPLIDAR A2M12 working normally, please ensure proper space to

be left for its emitting and receiving laser lights when designing the host system.

The obscuring of the host system for the ranging window will impact the

performance and resolution of RPLIDAR A2M12. If you need cover the RPLIDAR

A2M12 with translucent materials or have other special needs, please contact

SLAMTEC about the feasibility.

You can check the Mechanical Dimensions chapter for detailed window

dimensions.

Coordinate System Definition of Scanning Data

The RPLIDAR A2M12 adopts coordinate system of the left hand. The dead ahead

of the sensors is the x axis of the coordinate system; the origin is the rotating

center of the range scanner core. The rotation angle increases as rotating

clockwise. The detailed definition is shown in the following figure:
