The ultrasonic sensor measuring principle – perfect for high demands
Ultrasonic sensors play a prominent role in industrial applications and other areas such as logistics. This is due to their sophisticated measuring principle:
An ultrasonic sensor transmits high-frequency sound waves that the respective object reflects. Based on the reflected waves, distance, fill level or mere presence can be detected without contact.
Compared to other measurement techniques such as optical time of flight (ToF) or LiDAR sensors, ultrasonic sensorshave a number of advantages. One important plus point is that obstacles such as dust or liquid do not pose a problem for this sensor technology, and they still measure with the usual precision!
