ALTOS Sat

A flexible solution for embedding into awkward shapes

ALTOS Sat enables integrating the base sensor (TRX) at different points in a product, according to the customers’ requirements and system definitions, to maximize the performances of each position. The compact size and low power consumption allow for flexibility to install the scanning units in different ways. 


ALTOS Sat can be used in an endless combination of settings that have a limited space available to install a sensor, or in a shape which is difficult to install a sensor. This makes ALTOS Sat perfect for the fast-evolving world of robotics, in which sensors are often required to fit into, for example, the corner of a robot. 

By splitting the scanning unit from the control unit of the LiDAR (LCU) the solution overcomes problems of mechanical size constraint.

ALTOS Sat with LCU

ALTOS Sat TRX Standalone

Different Setup Options

There are two different ways to control the LiDAR. The first is to integrate the LCU up to 15mm from the scanning units. The second is to integrate the LCU core into the platform compute unit which also saves on cost and reduces thermal concerns. Opsys scanning units do not require any active moving or cooling elements in the product.

The simple electronic design is robust to vibration and temperature variations and has a low unit to unit variance. It is designed for high volume, and with its simplicity of assembly and calibration means it is overall an extremely cost-effective solution.

Opsys LiDAR operates in a wide temperature range, from -40C to +65C and is supported in harsh conditions. Opsys LiDAR is extremely reliable, delivering a high-res point cloud, at an affordable price for mass production. It is compact in size: 109W x 67H x 100D (mm).

ALTOS Sat is a robust solution. It is also small, and Opsys’ technology that it is based on, is designed as a Lego-brick system, to offer the ultimate in flexibility when it comes to integration for very specific architecture requirements. It is easy to define the necessary field of view (FOV) and resolution for each application. In addition, using the remote LiDAR configuration maximizes the efficiency of the scanning units.

Benefits of ALTOS Sat

  • Enables the capability to split between the TRX and the control and compute units. This minimizes the installation size and reduces the heat dissipation management

  • Many installations options that were not possible due to existing LiDAR technology can now be supported

  • There is no active element for laser cooling

  • All of the above allows for easy installation and ensures the integrators keep to the existing platform shape
