The HKD Sharp GP2D12 IR Distance Sensor (10-80cm) is a precision infrared sensor ideal for robotics, automation, and proximity detection applications. This compact sensor combines a PSD (position sensitive detector), infrared emitting diode (IRED), and integrated signal processing circuit to deliver highly accurate distance measurements using the triangulation method.
Its analog voltage output varies according to the distance of detected objects, making it perfect for touch-less switches, robot cleaners, and energy-saving applications in ATMs, copiers, vending machines, or control of illumination systems. The sensor is designed to be resistant to variations in object reflectivity, environmental temperature, and long-term operation, ensuring reliable and consistent performance.
