Time of Flight (TOF) sensors are used to measure exact distances to targets. A TOF sensor emits a signal that reflects off an object's surface and returns to the receiver, and the speed of that response is interpreted as a physical distance. A 3D TOF sensor can analyze many points across a three-dimensional area, allowing for measurement of non-uniform targets.
The Banner ZMX 3D Time of Flight Sensor uses digital imaging and thousands of laser measurement points to monitor three-dimensional areas. It is an ideal single-sensor solution for measuring the average or peak heights of objects of varying shapes and sizes within a container or on a pallet.
Banner’s K50Z Multipoint Sensor reliably measures across large areas with a wide beam angle and 8 x 8 pixel array, and can monitor two areas independently.
