## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it work with android phone? or store data on sd card?**
A: It can be a part of a system that does all that and much more, but on its own it does not do anything. This is not a standalone device. This is just a part. It doesn't have power supply, it doesn't have memory to store data in it, it doesn't have wireless capability. All it does is generating signal that some other device has to process... 
I'm pretty sure you're looking for something else...

**Q: when this says 12M range, does this mean 12M on all sides, or 6m on either side?**
A: A1M8 can perform 360 degree scan within 12-meter range Ranging Radius, so it is capable of 12M max  on all sides(circle with radius of 12M). More details please refer to: https://www.youyeetoo.net/thread-36.html.

**Q: Will RPlidar hurt a cat's eyes?**
A: It will not hurt people and cat's eyes.

**Q: what is the wavelength spectrum and specs?**
A: Slamtec RPlidar sensor's typical  wavelength spectrum is 785 nanometer. You can refer to the datasheet for more details.
