NOTE:
During the fingertip design, the following shall be considered to
maintain optimal performance:
Clear optical path for the proximity sensors
Protect the proximity sensors from direct sunlight or strong light
source
Avoid dust and liquid penetration
WARNING:
The proximity sensors are sensitive parts and shall be protected
against:
Direct strong light (such as directional laser sources)
Direct high temperature
Mechanical contacts in any case
Expose to any liquid or fine conductive dust
NOTE:
Please clean regularly the proximity sensor surface with low
pressure compressed air (<5 bar) from a 5 cm distance. For
stronger contamination use isopropyl alcohol with a soft cotton
swab to keep it clean.
Finger Thickness
The default fingertips are considered while the finger thickness has been set and could not be
changed in the software. In case when custom fingertips are used, the user should manually
compensate for the difference in the finger thickness.
