12km 1535nm Long-Range Laser Rangefinder Module for EO Systems

Payload Integration: Airborne Turrets & Fire Control

Maintaining ranging integrity out to 12km requires elevated laser pulse energies coupled with low-noise Avalanche Photodiode (APD) receiver circuits. At ≤127g, this unit integrates seamlessly into 10-inch to 15-inch airborne turrets on MALE UAVs and ground combat vehicle observation sights.

Industrial RS-422 Differential Protocol

Utilizes full differential RS-422 communication to ensure immunity against severe electromagnetic interference (EMI) typical in armored vehicles, generator proximities, and slip-ring gimbal cabling. Supports high-speed telemetry streaming with real-time diagnostic reporting.

Dynamic Gain Control (DGC)

The built-in DGC stage dynamically adjusts amplification thresholds: suppressing close-in aerosol backscatter while maximizing sensitivity for distant returns, delivering reliable ranging accuracy (±1.5 m) across high-altitude flight trajectories.
