1. Introduction
The Livox Horizon is a high-performance, high-compatibility LiDAR sensor that can be used for
multiple applications including autonomous driving, robotic navigation, dynamic path planning,
and high-precision mapping. The Livox Horizon features a wider field of view (FOV), DL-Pack
(multi-laser and multi-APD) technology, and an advanced opto-electronic system design. This
ensures the Livox Horizon can not only deliver point cloud coverage approximately three times
more dense than the LIVOX MID™-40, but also scans horizontally from nearly top to bottom to
capture more data in the FOV. Users can check the real-time point cloud using Livox Viewer, and
a software development kit (SDK) is provided to help develop customizable applications using the
data acquired from the point cloud.
The Livox Horizon has a detection range of up to 260 meters.*
* This distance can be reached when the target object reflects 80% or more of incident light (e.g., grey
concrete walls and roads have a reflectivity range from 15% to 30%, while white plaster walls have
a reflectivity range from 90% to 99%) in an environment with a temperature of 25° C (77° F).
