AutomationDirect has expanded its photoelectric sensor offering to include OPT series short and long range distance sensors. Available with either Class 1 or Class 2 laser options, the distance ...

Makers and electronic enthusiasts searching for a small laser sensor may be interested in a new Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign which currently has 19 days left to run and is raising money to take the ...

If you’ve made a robot or played around with electronics before, you might have used a time-of-flight laser distance sensor before. More modern ones detect not just the first reflection, but analyze ...

This post is a review of the popular waterproof ultrasonic sensor JSN-SR04T. I hope this will serve as a backdrop for some interesting ultrasonic distance sensor experiments and projects. A number of ...

Using a time-of-flight technique, the PMD laser distance sensor measures to 10 m. The visible-red Class II laser device's face measures 42 x 42 mm, and its housing is 52 mm deep. The unit is based on ...

The GV Series digital CMOS laser sensor uses a Datum algorithm to detect targets that conventional sensors cannot. The optical-triangulation sensor detects shiny targets with multiple reflections, ...
