As the price of laser rangefinders has been continuously reduced, laser rangefinders have gradually been used in industry. At home and abroad, a number of new micro-distance meters with the advantages of fast ranging, small size and reliable performance have emerged, which can be widely used in industrial measurement and control, mines, ports and other fields.

When the emitted laser beam power is sufficient, the measuring range can reach about 40 kilometers or even more, and the laser rangefinder can work day and night, but when there is a material with high laser absorption rate in space, its ranging distance and accuracy will decline. The laser rangefinder can also be used to track and range the satellite, measure the flight height of the aircraft, aim and range the target, and conduct topographic mapping and survey.
