            Abstract : 
We developed a three dimensional range sensor module for taking wide view field laser reflecting points in which the body of two dimensional SOKUIKI sensor is swung by roundly swinging mechanism. We have defined the communication interface with SCIP-3D mini, as a minimum set of command system for 3D SOKUIKI sensor. To indicate the performance of the SOKUIKI sensor module, we took the reflecting points in real space in various environment. The results have shown the usefulness for the real-time environmental measurements.
