Abstract

The market for house robots is booming, fueled by advancements in visual sensing, particularly LiDAR technology. Solidstate LiDAR excels in precise, low-cost imaging, suitable for integration. This article aims to review the principles, strengths and weaknesses of three types of solid-state LiDAR – flash LiDAR, MEMS LiDAR and PA LiDAR. As technology evolves, solid-state LiDAR finds wider use in service and industry. Service robots emphasize safety and flexibility, while industrial robots prioritize robustness and power. Recent innovations focus on enhancing FOV, reducing power and errors, pointing to a future of compact, hybrid, innovative, and cost-effective solid-state LiDAR systems.
