Digital Laser Adjustable Proximity Sensor for Arduino / Raspberry Pi (1-400cm, IP67)

The Digital Laser Proximity Sensor is designed for versatile and demanding environments. Leveraging laser diffuse reflection technology, it provides an adjustable detection range of 1-400cm, configurable via an onboard button. This setup bypasses the need for any coding, offering a user-friendly experience without sacrificing precision. With an accuracy of ±4% and a 35° detection angle, it stands as a superior choice over traditional IR sensors, renowned for its precision and extended range.

The device’s IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating ensures resilient performance even in harsh outdoor or industrial conditions. Its robust PC-V0 fireproof housing and sealed construction enhance safety and reliability, making it suitable for scenarios such as smart parking and agricultural machinery. Unlike conventional sensors that might need extra protective enclosures, this sensor can be directly installed in challenging environments, minimizing maintenance requirements and complexity.

The high precision of the Digital Laser Proximity Sensor is further complemented by its digital output capabilities, which offer seamless integration with development platforms like Arduino and Raspberry Pi. The active detection mode offers swift responses, making it highly effective for applications in security systems, robotic obstacle avoidance, and automated control tasks. Certified with CE and RoHS, it ensures adherence to stringent international safety and environmental standards, underlining its commitment to quality and sustainability.

The adaptability and ease of configuration of the detection range, from 1 to 400cm, allow its utilization across an array of applications. Whether it's short-range object detection or long-distance monitoring, the adjustable range feature can be a game-changer. For instance, in automated guided vehicle navigation within warehouses, the ability to adjust to different shelf heights is invaluable. This makes the sensor an adaptable tool in environments that demand dynamic range adjustments.

Connecting the sensor is straightforward, especially with its compatibility with the DFRduino UNO R3 and IO Expansion Shield. This compatibility offers a range of application possibilities, from robotics and smart home setups to industrial automation. Its design and feature set make it a prime choice for those seeking a reliable and adaptable proximity sensing solution.
