Optical sensors for distance measuring are devices that use light-based methods to determine the distance between the sensor and a target object. These sensors employ principles such as time-of-flight, triangulation, or interferometry to calculate distances accurately. Optical distance measuring sensors are widely used in applications such as robotics, industrial automation, and automotive safety systems for tasks such as object detection, collision avoidance, and positioning. They offer advantages such as high accuracy, fast response times, and non-contact operation, making them suitable for diverse sensing requirements across industries. Optical distance measuring sensors play a crucial role in enabling precise and reliable distance measurement in various electronic systems and devices.
