It is an ideal sensor for near-field perception in use cases like autonomous vehicles (AVs), robotics, industrial automation, and smart infrastructure.
Key Features and Benefits
| Feature | Specification / Benefit |
| Field of View (FOV) | Ultra-Wide 90° Vertical ($\pm 45^\circ$) and $360^\circ$ Horizontal for superior near-field perception, seeing from floor to ceiling or over objects like curbs and pallets. |
| Vertical Resolution | 64 channels (layers) for dense, high-resolution point cloud data. |
| Range Performance | Up to $100\text{ m}$ maximum range. Sees over $35\text{ m}$ on a low-reflectivity $10\%$ target (a significant improvement over Rev6). |
| Precision & Accuracy | Improved precision, typically ranging from $\pm 0.5\text{ cm}$ to $\pm 5\text{ cm}$. |
| Data Rate | Outputs up to $2,621,440$ points per second (up to $5.2$ million for the OS0 family) with configurable horizontal resolutions (512, 1024, or 2048). |
| Lidar Technology | Digital Lidar using Ouster’s proprietary L3 chip (featuring back-side-illumination) for $10\times$ increase in photon sensitivity, enhanced object detection, and clear data in bright sunlight. |
| Durability | Compact and rugged design with IP68/IP69K ingress protection and higher resistance to shock and vibration, built with approximately $95\%$ automotive-grade components. Operating temperature range of $-40^\circ \text{C}$ to $+70^\circ \text{C}$. |
| Connectivity | Supports Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) and the option for 1000BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet for seamless system integration. |
| Additional Data | Provides dual return mode for enhanced object classification, calibrated reflectivity, and camera-grade near-infrared and signal data. |
Applications
The OS0-64 Rev7’s ultra-wide field of view and short-range accuracy make it particularly powerful for applications where close-range detail and wide vertical coverage are critical:
- Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) & Logistics: Floor-to-ceiling coverage in warehouses, navigation, and obstacle avoidance in cluttered indoor/outdoor spaces.
- Autonomous Vehicles & ADAS: Near-vehicle perception for low-speed maneuvers, parking assist, and identifying small, low-lying, or overhead obstacles.
- Industrial Automation: Machine guidance, safety, and monitoring in demanding factory or outdoor environments.
- Mapping & Surveying: Generating dense, accurate 3D maps of local environments.
