2023-08-23

The application of LiDAR in the street light switch trigger refers to the liDAR installed on the street light, the liDAR detects the surrounding environment through the lidar, determines whether there are traffic objects such as vehicles or pedestrians on the road, and automatically turns on or off the street light as needed. This technology can improve the energy efficiency of street lamps and reduce unnecessary energy waste.

The application and advantages of LiDAR in street lamp switch triggering mainly include the following aspects:


1. Accurate detection: LiDAR can accurately detect the surrounding objects, whether in a well-lit or dim environment has a good performance, can effectively determine whether the need to switch lights.

2. Automatic control: The LiDAR can be connected with the switching device, and the light can be automatically switched on and off according to different detection results, without manual intervention, which improves the work efficiency.

3. Wide range detection: LiDAR can scan a wide range and can detect traffic objects at a higher distance and height, which is more safe and reliable.

4. Data management: Statistical analysis can be performed on the data of traffic objects detected by LiDAR to reflect the traffic conditions of various time periods and locations, and the switching time of street lights can be adjusted according to the data to maximize the utilization of energy.

5. Intelligent application: Lidar can be integrated with smart street lights, smart cities and other technologies to achieve more intelligent applications, improve the wisdom of urban management, and better serve the public.

Technical advantages of the MVR3EB Laser ranging module for this application:


1. Wide range: The module can achieve high-speed ranging in the range of 0.3 to 14 meters /28 meters, covering the switching distance requirements of most street lights, and can also be effectively measured in indoor and outdoor environments.

2. High frequency: TOF(time-of-flight Time of Flight) technology is used to quickly and accurately measure the distance of traffic objects in a short time, up to a speed of 200Hz. Therefore, the switching operation of street lamps can achieve real-time performance and improve the accuracy and efficiency of street lamp control.

3. Centimeter-level accuracy: Ensure that the switching operation of the street lamp is more accurate and accurate. In different environments and scenarios, the module can achieve stable accuracy, avoiding problems such as misoperation and missing detection.

4. Compact size: Miniaturization is suitable for embedded development, easy installation, and can be easily built into the overall structure. This can ensure that the street lamp switch control system is more concise and beautiful.

5. High safety: 940nm VCSEL light source is used, which belongs to a class of safety laser. Compared with other types of lasers, this laser will be safer and more reliable during use, avoiding unnecessary risks and dangers.

6. Efficiency improvement: The distance of pedestrians or vehicles can be measured quickly and accurately without contact, thus achieving intelligent control. Using this module can improve the efficiency of the street light switch, save energy and cost.

7. Various data output formats: The module provides HEX and ASCII UART serial port output data formats, which can be easily linked with other systems or devices to achieve more functions and control operations.

8. High cost performance: Compared with other street lamp switch control solutions, the MVR3EB laser ranging module has a lower cost, and its reliability and efficiency are also high. This module can be considered in the design and development of street lamp control systems, thereby reducing costs and improving performance.
