Velodyne Puck
Velodyne’s VLP-16 Sensor Is the Smallest, Newest and Most Advanced Production Velodyne’s 3D Lidar Product Range.
Vastly more cost-effective than similarly priced sensors and developed with mass production in mind, it retains the key features of Velodyne’s breakthroughs in LiDAR: Real-time, 360°, 3D distance and calibrated reflectivity measurements.

Description
Velodyne LiDAR’s Puck is a small and compact lidar that is performance and power optimized for usage across a variety of applications ranging from automotive, mapping, robotics, security, smart cities and more. The Puck is attractively priced and built on the foundations of Velodyne’s leadership in lidar, enabling real-time, surround view, 3D distance and calibrated reflectivity measurements. The Puck has a range of 100 m and generates up to ~600,000 points/second, across a 360° horizontal field of view and a 30° vertical field of view. It uses proven, Class 1 eye-safe 905 nm technology with substantial autonomous fleet validation, making the Puck a sensor of choice for lower speed autonomous vehicle (AV) applications. The Puck has best-in-class power, which enables operation over a wide temperature range. It's use of off-the-shelf components enables enhanced scalability and attractive volume pricing. Like other Velodyne sensors, the Puck has world-class technical support available across North America, Europe & Asia from the world’s leading lidar company.
