Overview
SLAMTEC Mapper M2M3 LiDAR is a laser mapping sensor that integrates map building with real-time localization and navigation. It combines a SLAMTEC third-generation high-performance SLAM engine with a laser range scanner, and is designed for plug-and-play mapping and re-localization in robotics and surveying workflows.
Key Features
- Built-in mapping and localization feature (laser mapping sensor)
- Large scenarios and high-quality mapping with SLAM graph optimization and SharpEdge™ mapping technology
- Plug and play, without any external dependence; operates with a USB power cable
- Tilting compensation and fast moving: built-in inertial navigation system with nine degrees of freedom; supports maximum moving speed of 2 m/s
- Indoor and outdoor availability, including outdoor environments with direct daylight
- Fully compatible with ROS; cross-platform SDK and tools for phone and PC; supports RViz workflow
- Can also be used as a laser range scanner via SDK or ROS node
- Built-in WiFi (access point and station mode) and 100M Ethernet port for communication and mobile application workflows
- Compatible SLAMTEC ecosystem; multiple work modes; small size; low power; Class 1

Details
A compact, plug-and-play mapper designed to bring real-time localization and map building into mobile and robotic workflows.
Graph optimization and SharpEdge™ mapping help produce clean, high-quality maps for both indoor and large-area environments.
Power and connect over USB for quick setup—ideal for rapid prototyping, surveys, and field testing.
Built-in 9-DOF inertial navigation supports fast motion and tilt compensation for stable mapping on the move.
Integrates smoothly with ROS and RViz, with cross-platform SDK tools for PC and mobile development.
Use it as a laser range scanner through the SDK or ROS node when raw scan data is the priority.
Built-in WiFi and Ethernet make it easy to stream mapping data and integrate into networked robot systems.
