DFRobot Fermion TMF8701 ToF Distance Ranging Sensor

DFRobot Fermion TMF8701 ToF Distance Ranging Sensor uses the time difference between light pulses to measure distance. It provides single-zone detection of an object irrespective of the color, reflectivity, and texture of the object. The TMF8701 offers a high dynamic range and operates in either a proximity mode (1 –10cm) or a ranging mode (10–60cm) for detection sensing. And the device can make highly accurate distance measurements within ±5% and is capable of operation in dark environments and in the presence of sunlight.

Features

  • 21º FOI, detect the object closest to the center
  • 10–600mm distance sensing
  • Enables dark and sunlight environment distance measurement within ±5%
  • A built-in histogram for compensating for dirt and smudges on a cover glass
  • 940nm VCSEL Class 1 Eye Safety
  • Low power consumption, 940μA power consumption at 10Hz(proximity mode); 26mA power consumption at 60Hz (distance and proximity mode); 0.26μA power-down current consumption (EN=0)

Applications

  • 3D face recognition
  • Proximity detection
  • Presence detection
  • Object detection
  • Distance measurement
  • Collision avoidance
