Which LiDAR sensors work with RPLidar Controller, and how many do I need?

Published · Updated

Recommended sensor

We recommend the RPLIDAR A3M1 sensor for the best performance. A wall mount is included with every LiDAR sensor you buy from us. You can also buy sensors from a local supplier, but they must be a compatible model.

How many sensors

  • 2 sensors cover 3 m of width.
  • 3 sensors cover 5 m.
  • 4 sensors cover 7 m.

The final count depends on the dimensions and the environment. If you share your wall dimensions and content goal, our team can prepare a first sensor plan.

RPLIDAR C1

The C1 sensor is not the recommended sensor. A special test version of the app was prepared for C1 users, but we cannot guarantee that it works smoothly with this sensor or how well it performs. If you use a C1 and the touch engine stops with a device information error, contact support for the C1 test version and share your results. For events, use an A3 sensor.

LiDAR Interactive Wall Bundle

The bundle comes with 2, 3 or 4 RPLIDAR A3M1 sensors (for 3 m, 5 m or 7 m), one wall mount per sensor and one year of LiDAR Interactive Wall (Pro). A game subscription is separate.
