RPLIDAR A2M8 360° Laser Scanner swarm

hey!

does anyone know whether is possible using 20+ of these in the same room without any interference?

thanks! b.

Hi,

Since they would all be using the same frequency, it is very likely they will interfere with each other. That being said, light does that, too, to a certain degree.

The real question is how bad would this interference be and would it prevent the devices from functioning?
From what we know of these sensors, it would most likely prevent proper use or greatly reduce the usefulness of the results (incorrect measurement data).

To be more certain of this we have contacted the manufacturer about it. We will post here again once we have more information.

Sincerely,

Many thanks!
