About

About Fairy

Fairy uses RoboSense's chip-based digital transceiver architecture to produce structured point clouds for mapping, localization, perception and obstacle avoidance. Active illumination supports operation across day, night, strong light, rain and fog, while the integrated IMU supplies motion context for mobile platforms.

The family is offered in 48- and 96-beam versions. Both cover 360 x 32 degrees and range to 150 m; the 48-beam unit outputs about 685,000 points per second, while the 96-beam model reaches about 1.37 million. The cylindrical sensor measures 75 mm in diameter by 70 mm high and weighs less than 350 g.
