From infrared to LiDAR: Which sensor technology suits your project?
| Sensor type | Functionality | Applications | Advantages | Not suitable for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LiDAR sensors | Send light pulses and measure runtime | Autonomous vehicles, mapping | High accuracy, long range | Highly reflective or moving objects, extreme weather conditions |
| Ultrasound | Transmit sound waves and measure transit time | Robotics, object recognition | Cost-effective, easy to implement | Soft surfaces, long distances |
| Infrared | Measure temperature differences and reflected light | Security technology, motion detection | Works well in the dark | Bright ambient lights |
| Time of Flight | Send light pulses and measure runtime | Smartphones, robotics | High precision, fast measurement | Strong reflections, very bright environments |
Important criteria for the purchase of a sensor
When buying a sensor, the most important criteria are range, precision and interfaces. Do you want to measure distances to within a few millimetres? Then time-of-flight sensors or infrared sensors are the right choice. LiDAR sensors are recommended for industrial applications with a greater range.
Our sensors offer a wide range of applications and can be easily integrated into Arduino projects or professional systems.
Start your next project with the ideal sensor technology
Our selection of proximity and distance sensors offers you state-of-the-art technologies that will take your projects to a new level of precision. Opt for infrared sensors if you need a compact design and fast response times, or use LiDAR sensors to measure long distances with maximum accuracy.
Time-of-flight sensors are particularly suitable for smart control systems and IoT projects as they provide fast and precise data in real time. Our sensors are compatible with common development platforms such as Arduino and optimised for a wide range of technical applications.
