High performance distance measurement sensor Based on infrared Time-of-Flight technology (ToF) Low power consumption Suitable for high volume usage The TeraRanger One ToF Rangefinder Type A (Spider) is the most advanced distance sensor for robotics. For crosstalk avoidance in multiple robot environments two versions of the sensor are available, type A and type B, which can operate simultaneously without affecting each other’s reading. Sensors A and B performance are very similar. We prefer A for indoor environments and B for outdoor as the latter is more stable in direct sunlight. The TeraRanger One ToF Rangefinder Type A (Spider) is a lightweight, high-performance distance measurement sensor based on infrared Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology. It is much faster than ultrasound and far smaller and lighter than laser-based systems. Its small size, high performance and low power consumption make it ideal for modern robotic applications, drone operations and automation, whilst its cost-effectiveness also makes it suitable for high volume usage as well as powerful research and DIY applications.
