OPTEX has launched the REDSCAN Lite LiDAR sensor, designed to provide precise and fast, short-range detection across indoor high-security environments.
As the latest addition to OPTEX’s REDSCAN LiDAR range, the REDSCAN Lite RLS-1010L has been developed to provide total coverage and protect high-risk security zones and vulnerable, narrow indoor spaces that are difficult to protect with traditional sensors. The RLS-1010L sensor, for instance, can detect intrusions in the tiny gaps between data centre server racks within cages or in ventilation shafts.
Developed for short-range applications, the sensor utilises time-of-flight (TOF) technology to accurately detect intruders within a 10 m x 10 m range in just 100 milliseconds. The sensors perform reliably in any indoor environment. Their ability to detect intrusion is not affected by changes in temperature or lighting and can even perform in total darkness.
The sensor can be mounted horizontally to create invisible laser planes to protect skylights and ceilings, or vertically to create invisible laser walls to protect server racks, high-value assets, access control turnstiles and more.
Installing and configuring the sensor is more efficient and much easier due to a range of user-friendly features. An optional Laser Alignment Tool helps installers visualise the detection area during setup. The sensor’s Automatic Area Correction setting helps prevent overspill outside of the detection zone. Additionally, the angle of the LiDAR can be adjusted to match the desired area by simply rotating the side knobs, with no power required.
Mac Kokobo, head of the Global Security Business at OPTEX, says REDSCAN Lite has been specifically developed to meet the evolving needs of customers. “In today’s modern environments, such as data centres, spaces are becoming tighter, filling with racks and processors. This latest REDSCAN Lite has been developed to meet the specific need for rapid detection in tight indoor spaces where high security is crucial.
“Feedback from customers highlighted a clear need for enhanced protection in small, narrow areas and spaces.” Kokobo continues, “So the REDSCAN Lite sensor has been designed to fit into the narrow gaps and is engineered to provide highly accurate and fast detection in indoor spaces that other technologies simply cannot reach.”
