Ultra light optical flow sensor and LiDAR for The Cube (Pixhawk 2.1)

HereFlow is a tiny module that includes a camera, an IMU and a laser. Placed under an aircraft, it allows to improve the horizontal position control (X and Y axis). HereFlow module is particularly useful for low and no satellite coverage areas (GPS).

Main features:

• Built-in ultra small LiDAR module;
• Built-in IMU module;
• Built-in optical flow sensor;
