Ouster OS0 (REV8) is an ultra-wide field-of-view digital 3D LiDAR sensor from the eighth-generation Ouster REV8 family, announced by Ouster, Inc. on 4 May 2026. It occupies the "ultra-wide" segment of the REV8 lineup and is designed for applications that require a wide field of view at short to mid range — mobile robotics, warehouse automation, AGV/AMR platforms, smart infrastructure, and industrial perception.
OS0 features a 90° field of view and delivers 3D data with native color thanks to the proprietary L4 Ouster Silicon chip (developed with a Fujifilm color-science partnership). The L4 architecture provides 42.9 GMACS of processing power and streams a color image alongside the point cloud, eliminating the need for a separate camera and sensor-fusion pipeline. Color is captured at 48-bit depth with 116 dB of dynamic range.
The sensor carries a full functional-safety certification package: ASIL-B (ISO 26262), SIL-2 (IEC 61508), PLd (ISO 13849), and cybersecurity per ISO 21434. The enclosure meets IP68 / IP69K environmental ratings, operates from -40 °C to +85 °C, and withstands mechanical shock up to 100 G and vibration up to 10 G-rms. It also meets the GMW3097 EMC standard and ESD protection up to 25 kV.
OS0 is Buy America(n) and NDAA compliant, qualifying it for U.S. infrastructure and defense procurement. It is manufactured at Ouster facilities in the United States and Thailand. The REV8 family also includes OS1 Max (long-range, 256 channels), OS1 (mid-range, 128 channels), and OSDome (hemispherical, 180° FOV).
LiDAR · serves as: Perception, Localization.
Which group Ouster OS0 (REV8) belongs to and how it is built
3D LiDAR Sensors are a subcategory of sensing components that use laser radiation to measure distance and construct three-dimensional representations of the environment. These sensors are used in robotics for space mapping, localization, autonomous navigation, obstacle avoidance, and building 3D perception systems. Depending on the model, they can provide point clouds with varying resolution, frequency, and range, supporting mobile robots, humanoid platforms, and autonomous systems.
LiDAR is a distance sensor that uses laser beams to measure space and generate data about the surrounding environment. In robotics, it is used for navigation, SLAM, mapping, obstacle avoidance, and environmental perception. Depending on the model, it can provide 2D, 3D, or more advanced spatial representations. LiDAR is one of the primary sensors in mobile, autonomous, and humanoid robots.
