This study focuses on development of LED mini-lidar for Mars rover. The goal is the quantitative observation of “Dust Devil” on Mars . Now, Its’ 10cm3 design was fixed and the quantitative observation was conducted with the concrete concept system. This report states the dust chamber experiment and analysis of the actual fog activity measurement result.
