## Description

desertcart.com: MicoAir OPTICAL FLOW & LIDAR SENSOR MTF-01 Compatible with Ardupilot/PX4/INAV (Ardupilot) : Industrial & Scientific

Review: Great find ! - This is a great sensor for measuring distance or height and optical flow, at a great price. I am using the ( documented ) micolink protocol using a custom python driver - works like a dream . Be aware that you will need to use the windows app to switch the sensor to the desired protocol ( Micolink/Mavlink/MSP ).
Review: good luck getting it to work - There are no "comprehensive video tutorials", I wish they simply just wrote a page on the expected data format. I don't see how this is so complicated to do for an item that you are selling and want to sell more of. It's almost like you don't care or specifically want to waste your buyers time. The protocol is older Mavlink v1 ... and not exactly it. Good luck trying to decipher what is what from dumping raw data.

## Features

- High Compatibility: The MTF-01 supports data output via uart, compatible with mainstream open-source flight control systems such as Ardupilot, PX4, and INAV. Users can switch communication protocols through the USB to UART TTL module, adapting to different flight control systems.
- Easy to Operate: Comes with comprehensive video tutorials that simplify the configuration process for quick and easy setup.
- Integrated High-Performance Sensors: Incorporates a PMW3901 optical flow sensor and a high-power TOF sensor, suitable for outdoor sunlight environments. It offers a ranging distance of 0.02-8m with 2% accuracy and effectively resists up to 70K Lux of ambient light.
- Lightweight Design, Strong Environmental Adaptability: Weighing only 4.5g and measuring 29 * 16.5 * 15mm, it supports operating voltages of 4.0-5.5V and working temperatures from -10°C to 60°C, adaptable to a variety of environments.
