Optex' New Short-Range Indoor Lidar Sensor
Optex introduces the latest addition to their award-winning Redscan Lidar range: the Redscan Lite RLS-1010L. The new sensor has been specially designed for indoor, high-security environments where space is often tight and traditional technologies struggle to keep up.
Using time-of-flight (TOF) technology, Redscan Lite delivers rapid detection within 100 milliseconds, unaffected by lighting or temperature conditions. It operates reliably even in complete darkness, making it suitable for sensitive indoor applications.
The sensor supports both horizontal and vertical mounting, allowing it to create virtual laser planes or walls to protect areas like skylights, ceilings, server racks, and access control points.
Installation is streamlined through several practical features: an optional Laser Alignment Tool for visualizing the detection area, Automatic Area Correction to prevent overspill, and manual angle adjustment via side knobs—no power required.
RedscanLite was developed in response to customer feedback highlighting the need for enhanced protection in increasingly compact and complex environments, such as datacentres. Its design reflects Optex’s ongoing commitment to adapting Lidar technology to real-world security challenges.
