Standard deviation
The standard deviation is a term from the field of statistics or stochastics and is given in
σ
(sigma). With the
standard deviation it is possible to determine how great the dispersion of values around a mean value is.
Broadly speaking, the standard deviation is the average distance of all measured expressions of a
characteristic from the mean value.
The standard deviation is only useful if you consider measurement values which should actually be identical
but which vary. For the sensor, this means that an even surface is observed vertically (or with active Flex
Mount). The standard deviation is then a measure for the unevenness of the surface. All measuring points
within the preset field of view are taken into consideration.
Avg HEIGHT
Average height of the object from the reference
surface.
Max HEIGHT
Maximum height of the object from the reference
surface.
Min HEIGHT
Minimum height of the object from the reference
surface.
Delta HEIGHT
Maximum height of the object minus minimum height.
No need to teach the reference surface.
