The B5L 3D Time-of-Flight (TOF) sensor module is based on the time-of-flight principle. It calculates distances to objects in real time by measuring the round-trip time it takes for near-infrared radiation emitted by the module to reflect off objects within the field of view and return to the receiver. The B5L series incorporates a unique optical design technology for stable measurement of three-dimensional distance information over a wide area, even under less-than-ideal lighting conditions such as sunlight. Capable of up to 20 measurements per second, the module offers optimized characteristics for extended periods of continuous operation, making it suitable for use in embedded sensors within a variety of instruments.
This 103mm x 43mm module comes with a 24V DC power connector and a Micro-USB communication port, facilitating integration and increasing flexibility for embedded system designers. The sensor incorporates a 940nm near-infrared emitter and a 240 x 320 pixel receiver array, providing information across the entire field of view and measuring the absolute distance to objects between 0.5m and 4m. The module achieves an accuracy of ±2% (for a detection distance of 2m). Its built-in temperature compensation simplifies integration into autonomous robots and other equipment used in diverse environments by eliminating the need to design a separate compensation process.
With its wide viewing angle and operating temperature range of 0°C to 50°C, the B5L-A2S-U01-010 can be used in numerous indoor applications.
