OptoDist: optical distance sensor

Product Overview

The OptoDist is a close-up range ToF (time of flight) laser distance sensor with high sampling rate.

The OptoDist is for industrial distance measurement, the distance range is from 30mm up to 1300mm.

The distance measurement is precise with mm accuracy.
