Carlson offers pencil-beam Integrable Laser Modules (ILM) that provide users with contactless measurements between the sensor and a passive target (stationary or moving). Customizations have been uniquely developed for customers’ use in road traffic, security, and altimetry applications. DESIGNED FOR STAND-ALONE OPERATION OR FOR SYSTEM INTEGRATION ILMs use time-of-flight technology to calculate range. The laser sensor can then use the range to trigger external devices, such as cameras or warning systems. AVAILABLE ILM VARIANTS Code : Variant : Description R : Standard rangefinder : The ILM-R (range) variant averages 20 individual range measurements, providing a stable measurement at a rate of approximately 9 Hz. T : Camera trigger / proximity sensor : The ILM-T (trigger) variant is configured to provide a trigger signal to external devices when the range to the target is within a customer defined trigger window. HR : High repetition : The ILM-HR (high repetition) variant does not average ranges, the range output rate is 400 Hz consisting of 400 individual range measurements.
