The latest Apple phones now come equipped with a groundbreaking LiDAR sensor, opening up new possibilities for precise environmental measurements. This advanced sensor emits over 10,000 laser pulses per second, accurately measuring distances to surrounding objects.
Enhanced Precision and Range
LiDAR technology brings several advantages to the table:
- More accurate distance measurements
- Faster processing
- Increased range
When measuring tree diameters using the Arboreal Forest app, the LiDAR sensor is now utilized to achieve the best possible results.
Overcoming Dense Foliage
One of the most significant improvements is the ability to measure dense spruce trees more easily. Previously, branches could sometimes interfere with obtaining the correct tree diameter. The LiDAR sensor's advanced capabilities help overcome this challenge, providing more accurate measurements even in challenging forest conditions.
Continuous Innovation
At Arboreal, we're committed to continually developing new features for the Arboreal Forest app. However, if you want to ensure the best possible results in your forest measurements, we recommend investing in a phone with LiDAR capability when you next upgrade your device.
