LADAR VS.Conventional Laser Radar
DYNAMIC 9D LADAR provides micron-level resolution while eliminating issues associated with surface reflectivity, slow data acquisition speeds, limited accuracies, restrictive incident angles, and susceptibility to production environment noise.
Laser Radar systems require large sample averaging to obtain reasonable accuracy, effectively slowing data rates. API’s OFCI technology uses fast laser chirping to generate a wide spectrum for optical interference. The interference signal detected yields 100x higher sensitivity than Laser Radar.
9D LADAR OVERVIEW
Dynamic 9D LADAR is a breakthrough technology, representing the fastest, most accurate non-contact measurement system in the world. 9D LADAR’s rapid, accurate data collection in real-time is set to revolutionize automated in-line production measurements and obsolete exiting conventional Laser Radar systems that require large sample averaging to obtain reasonable accuracy, effectively slowing data acquisition rates.
TARGETLESS MEASUREMENTS
The compact size and light-weight design of API’S 9D LADAR allows the instrument to be taken directly to manufacturing locations, allowing automated measurement to be performed quickly and with minimum set-up times. Measurement variability using current manually operated tactile and optical measuring devices are eliminated with execution of all measurements automatically. Existing third-party metrology software’s can be utilized for data reporting, minimizing learning curves and ensuring seamless integration into existing measurement practices and data analysis.
Non-contact Laser Radar technology has proven its ability to measure automotive parts including full ‘Body-in-White’, as a replacement for CMM measurements adjacent to production lines providing both external and internal measurements of vehicle body regions. 9D LADAR precision automated high-speed ‘raster’ scanning provides both surface geometry point cloud data collection as well as ‘gap and flush’ dimensional data. The new API 9D LADAR delivers the fastest ever laser measurement solution dramatically increasing measurement throughout and productivity for all automotive applications.
