Waveshare Laser Distance Measurement Sensor

Diffuse Reflection Laser Distance Sensor Module Laser Ranging Module Obstacle Detection. Signal output indicator, Features boost circuit.Obstacle detection,Pipeline counter,Smart robot,Obstacle-avoiding car. A Waveshare Laser Distance Sensor contains a transmitter and a receiver. In the transmitter, there is an oscillating tube can generate a shockwave in a frequency of 180KHz. After amplified by a transistor, the shockwave is applied to the laser tube for exciting. In the receiver, there is a receiving tube, matching to the oscillating tube, can receive the reflected light. Since the laser sensor adopts modulation processing technology, the receiving tube can only receive the reflected light in a same frequency, efficiently preventing from the visible light.
