The Triangulation Technique is an Ancient Yet Very Accurate Way of Measuring Distance.
What is a distance sensor?
A distance sensor is a device that utilizes a laser and CCD-camera to measure the distance between the sensor and the target object. This high-quality laser sensor employs advanced digital electronics to ensure precise and accurate measurements. It can be used on various surfaces such as asphalt, cardboard, fiber, foam, food, glass, granulate, liquid, metal, paper, plastic, powder, rubber, steel, stone, and wood.
