Cost efficient design
Operates in full sunlight
Low power consumption
Wide field of view
Small footprint
Simple serial connectivity
Long Range
This device contains a component which emits laser radiation. The
laser product is designated Class 1 during all operating modes.
This means that the laser is safe to look at with the unaided eye,
however it is advisable to not look directly into the beam when in
use.
When connecting a Sweep sensor to a 5VDC power source, it
should be limited to a maximum of 8A as defined in EN 60950-1,
