Ouster OS0 Ultra-Wide View High-Resolution Imaging Lidar
Vendor: Ouster, Inc. (USA, NYSE: OUST)
Product: OS0

The Ouster OS0 is the Rev8 ultra-wide short-range imaging lidar: 90 deg vertical FOV (+45 to -45) and 360 deg horizontal, 32/64/128 channels, 512-4096 horizontal columns (0.088 deg angular resolution at 4096) and 5-40 Hz configurable rotation. In 1024 @ 10 Hz mode it reaches 75 m on 80% Lambertian targets and 35 m on 10% targets, both at >90% detection probability under 100 klx sunlight, with 500 m max representable range and a minimum range configurable down to 0 m (0.5 m default, 0.3 m optional). Range accuracy is +/-1.25 cm (Lambertian) / +/-2.5 cm (retroreflective) - 2x better precision and accuracy than Rev7 - at 0.1 cm range resolution, with up to 2 returns and 10,485,760 points per second; the 865 nm laser is Class 1 eye-safe. Native RGB-D color point cloud (116 dB dynamic range) carries RGB, range, signal, reflectivity, NIR, channel, azimuth and timestamp per point, with a synchronous IMU at 640/1280/2560 Hz. Data leaves over gigabit Ethernet UDP with PTP/gPTP/NMEA/PPS time sync (<1 ms error) and <10 ms latency. It runs from 12/24 VDC (9-58 V) at 10-20 W, measures 87 mm diameter x 58.35 mm and weighs 500 g (580 g with halo cap); IP68/IP69K, -40 to +85 C (Rev7 was +60 C), 100 g shock, 10 Grms vibration and MTTF over 250,000 h. Engineered for functional safety (ASIL-B, SIL-2, PLd) with an on-sensor 3D Zone Monitor and designed for cybersecurity to ISO 21434 / UNECE WP.29 / IEC 62443 / ISO 27001. Built for AMRs, AGVs, inspection robots, heavy machinery, drones and mapping solutions that need close-range blind-spot perception and high-accuracy 3D modeling.
