Sense.TOF
time-of-flight distance
The Sense.TOF is a single-zone time-of-flight distance sensor based on the ams-Osram TMF8806, which uses a Class-1 eye-safe 940 nm VCSEL laser emitter with SPAD detection. It provides 1-mm sensing resolution over a range from 1 centimeter to 5 meters (extendable to 10 meters) with a max output data rate of 30Hz. The sensor features on-chip histogram processing, a 24-degree field of view, and pre-installed firmware suitable for obstacle detection, proximity sensing, collision avoidance, and autofocus applications.
