MorpheusTEK and Hangzhou OLE-Systems Co., Ltd. (OLEI) today announced the launch of their new VF48-50 dome lidar and two new compact safety protection lidar sensors.

“We are pleased to announce the launch of these three advanced sensors,” said Phil Hennessy, MorpheusTEK CEO and founder. “These compact, high-performance solutions strengthen our commitment to providing cost-effective, advanced perception sensors that accelerate intelligent automation.”

OLEI is exhibiting its lidar sensors at MODEX 2026 in booth A1518. The trade show is being hosted by MHI April 13-16 in Atlanta, Georgia.

360 degree VF48-50 dome lidar

The new OLEI VF48-50, is a compact 360-degree surround-view lidar with a 360 degree horizontal and 50 degree vertical field of view. The device offers a 160-foot detection range, covers up to 800,000 square feet, and generates high-precision 3D point clouds for accurate environmental perception.

OLEI said its wide field of view, high accuracy, compact size, and light weight design make it ideal for robotics, logistics, AGVs in smart warehouses, and drone mapping. The independently-developed opto-mechatronic lidar can provide reliable sensing, navigation, and positioning for intelligent systems.

ILC-330 3D & ILC-210 2D AI+ Safety Protection lidars

The new OLEI ILC-330 3D AI+ Safety Protection lidar delivers a 120 degree by 50 degree field of view, 160-foot working distance, Class 1 laser safety, 12-24V operating voltage, and optional IP65/IP67 protection.

The second model, OLEI ILC-210 2D AI+ Safety Protection lidar provides a wide 180 degree field of view, 80-foot working distance, Class 1 laser, 12-24V voltage, and IP65 rating.

Both new Safety Protection lidars are designed for reliable obstacle detection and environmental sensing in robotics, AGVs, logistics, and industrial automation applications.
