Contact modules are sensor devices designed to detect or measure physical contact or proximity to objects. They play a crucial role in automation, robotics, and detection systems, providing valuable input for various applications.
The price of contact modules varies depending on factors such as sensor type, functionality, and additional features. Basic models like the TCRT5000 Infrared Reflective Line Track Sensor Module are cost-effective, while advanced sensors may have a higher price.
Consider factors such as sensing technology, detection range, and interface compatibility when selecting contact modules. Choose a module that aligns with your project's requirements for accurate and reliable object detection or proximity sensing.
Laser rangefinders emit laser beams towards a target object and measure the time it takes for the laser to reflect back to the sensor. By calculating the time delay, the distance to the object can be determined accurately. These devices are commonly used in surveying, construction, and robotics for distance measurement applications.
Inductive proximity sensors detect the presence of metallic objects without direct contact. They work by generating an electromagnetic field and detecting changes in the field when a metallic object enters its sensing range. These sensors are widely employed in industrial automation, machinery, and automotive applications for object detection, position sensing, and conveyor systems.
