Ouster OS1 Rev8 Mid-Range High-Resolution Imaging Lidar

Ouster (San Francisco, pioneer of digital lidar, merged with Velodyne in 2023) is a leading digital LiDAR maker. The OS1 Rev8 is its flagship mid-range imaging lidar: 865 nm laser, 360°x44° FOV, 32/64/128 channels, 512-4096 horizontal columns (0.088° angular resolution), 5-40 Hz configurable rotation; 170 m range at 80% Lambertian reflectivity (>90% detection, 100 klx sunlight), 90 m at 10%, 500 m max representable, 0 m minimum; native RGB-D color point cloud with range/signal/reflectivity/NIR/azimuth/timestamp per point and up to 2 returns; gigabit Ethernet UDP with PTP/gPTP/PPS/NMEA time sync (<1 ms error); 12/24 VDC supply (9-58 V), 10-20 W power; IP68/IP69K, -40 to +85 °C, 100 g shock and 10 Grms vibration, designed for functional safety ASIL-B/SIL-2/PLd, ~500 g. Ideal for inspection robots, AMR navigation, smart infrastructure and security.
