# TF-Luna LiDAR Module - Short-Range Distance Sensor

**Type:** Product page · **SKU:** SS101990656 · **Brand:** [Seeed Studio](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/seeed-studio-australia)
**Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/tf-luna-lidar-module-short-range-distance-sensor.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/tf-luna-lidar-module-short-range-distance-sensor.html.md))

TF-Luna is a single-point ranging LiDAR, based on the TOF (Time of Flight) principle. It is mainly used for stable, accurate and high-frame-rate range detection.

## Pricing

- **Price:** $43.15 (inc GST) — $39.23 AUD, exc GST
- **Quantity discounts:** 10+ $37.65 (exc GST) · 25+ $36.48 (exc GST)

## Availability & dispatch

- Available with a lead time — expect dispatch between Aug 20 and Aug 24.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=SS101990656:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/SS101990656:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

TF-Luna is a single-point ranging LiDAR, based on the TOF (Time of Flight) principle. It is mainly used for stable, accurate and high-frame-rate range detection.

This LiDAR is built with algorithms adapted to suit various application environments and offers excellent distance measurement performances in complex application fields and scenarios.

It also supports two interfaces for communication: UART and I2C and the configurations and parameters on this LiDAR can be adjusted according to your application needs.

**Features**

- Compact Size for easy deployment in LIDAR projects
- Low Power Consumption for longer usage periods
- Light Weight Design ideal for UAV applications
- High Frame Rate Range Detection through high stability and accuracy
- In-built Algorithms to suit for various application environments
- Adjustable configurations and parameters for complex application scenarios
- Easy Firmware Upgradability via the TTL-USB connection with PC

**How does this LiDAR work?**
TF-Luna is based on TOF, namely, Time of Flight principle. It emits modulation waves of near-infrared rays on a periodic basis, which will be reflected after contact with an object. The LiDAR obtains the time of flight by measuring the round-trip phase difference and then calculates the relative distance between the LiDAR and the detected object.
