Sony Electronics Inc.'s AS-DT1 LiDAR Depth Sensor is now available for purchase through authorized Sony distributors. The new miniature LiDAR depth sensor is among the world's smallest and lightest, measuring just 29mm x 29mm x 31mm (approximately 1.14 inch width x 1.14 inch height x 1.22 inch depth), excluding protrusions, and weighing only about 46g (approx. 1.6 ounces), making it ideal for space and weight-constrained applications.

Housed in a compact, robust aluminum enclosure, the AS-DT1 is designed for easy integration into larger solutions, including autonomous mobile robots and guide vehicles, inspection drones, and other advanced sensing platforms.

Powered by Direct Time of Flight (dToF) LiDAR technology and a proprietary Single Photon Avalanche Diode (SPAD) sensor, the AS-DT1 delivers fast, highly accurate three-dimensional distance measurement, easily accommodating low contrast and low reflectivity objects. Its long measurement range supports up to 40 meters (approx. 131.23 feet) indoors and 20 meters (approx. 65.6 feet) outdoors under bright conditions, enabling reliable performance in varying environments.
