Broadcom AFBR-S50LV85D time-of-flight sensor module

The AFBR-S50LV85D is the new addition to Broadcom’s Time of Flight (ToF) sensor family

The AFBR-S50LV85D is the new addition to Broadcom’s Time of Flight (ToF) sensor family and has been developed with a special focus on industrial sensing applications for large distances of typical up to 30 m. The module has an integrated 850 nm laser light source, and due to a 2° x 2° emission cone, it can typically use 1 to 3 pixels, depending on distance and remission of the measured object. It is an ideal solution for industrial sensing applications over large distances up to 30 m, typically.
