Key Terms
Repeatability
How reliably a sensor can repeat the same measurement in the same conditions. Repeatability of 0.5 mm means that multiple measurements of the same target will be within ± 0.5 mm.
Accuracy
The maximum difference between the measured value and the actual value; the smaller the difference between the measured value and actual value, the greater the accuracy. Accuracy of 0.5 mm means that the sensor reading will be within ± 0.5 mm of the actual distance.
Linearity
How closely a sensor’s analog output approximates a straight line across the measuring range. The more linear the sensor’s measurements, the more consistent the measurements across the full range of the sensor. Linearity of 0.5 mm means that the greatest variance in measurement across the sensor’s range is ± 0.5 mm.
