The O6D series optical ToF distance sensors from ifm enable the detection of objects at distances of up to 3m. The sensor can output either the reflectance value or the distance value. Users can select between three operating modes: Fine, Standard, and Fast. Detection is possible even on deep black or reflective surfaces thanks to the HEG (High Excess Gain) feature. Configuration and commissioning are performed either via the two teach buttons on the device or via IO-Link.
