Manufacturer: sharp-microelectronics

series introduction

The GP2D12 Series is a renowned line of infrared distance measuring sensors designed to deliver precise and reliable distance detection in a wide range of applications. These sensors are engineered to provide accurate measurements of objects within a defined range, making them ideal for applications requiring non-contact distance sensing. The GP2D12 Series is particularly valued for its compact design, ease of integration, and consistent performance, making it a popular choice across various industries.

One of the key features of the GP2D12 Series is its ability to measure distances with high accuracy using infrared light. The sensor emits an infrared beam and calculates the distance to an object based on the reflection of the beam. This technology ensures reliable detection even in challenging environments, such as varying light conditions or uneven surfaces. The GP2D12 Series typically offers a detection range of 10 cm to 80 cm, making it suitable for applications requiring mid-range distance measurement.

The design of the GP2D12 Series emphasizes simplicity and versatility. The sensors are compact and lightweight, allowing for easy integration into space-constrained systems. They are equipped with a standard three-pin interface (power, ground, and signal output), enabling straightforward connection to microcontrollers or other control systems. The analog output signal provides a voltage proportional to the measured distance, simplifying data interpretation and processing.

The GP2D12 Series is widely used in robotics, automation, and consumer electronics. In robotics, these sensors are commonly employed for obstacle detection, navigation, and object avoidance. In industrial automation, they are utilized for precise positioning, object detection, and conveyor belt monitoring. Additionally, the GP2D12 Series finds applications in consumer products such as interactive toys, smart appliances, and virtual reality systems, where accurate distance measurement is critical.

Overall, the GP2D12 Series stands out for its reliability, accuracy, and adaptability, making it a trusted solution for engineers and designers seeking robust distance sensing capabilities in their projects.
