If you are installing one on your robot it might be useful to know where the optical center is and where the transmit and receive optical axes are located. So, after having previously taken the Hokuyo UTM-30LX apart, we finally got around to working out some mechanical drawings. Keep in mind that the full cylindrical viewing region should be kept clear of occlusions for best performance.
If you need a CAD drawing, it is now available here in STEP format. (right click, save as, etc) The critical dimensions should be accurate, but there are some minor cosmetic details left out. Caveat emptor, as always when it comes to these things.
If you are looking for the Hokuyo URG-04LX Laser Rangefinder it is over here.

How is the lateral resolution at 30m? I hear it has a big laser spot size out at 30m. What is the effect on mapping the walls, are corners smoothed a lot?
I think the link to the Step file is broken. Is there a new home for the CAD file?
It should be fixed in a day or two. If not, feel free to bug us.
CAD file link is still broken any update
