Calculation tool repeatability / measuring frequency
 
This tool is used to assess the measuring quality of the O1Dxxx distance sensor. The core criterion here is the attainable repeatability*. This depends on:
  • the degree of reflection of the object to be detected
  • the distance between sensor and object to be measured
  • the required measuring frequency
* The repeatability describes the variation range of measured values when one object is measured several times in the same position.
 
Application
  • Estimate the degree of reflection of the object to be measured and click on one field of the grey coloured samples.
  • Indicate the distance in mm between the object to be measured and the sensor.
  • Indicate the required measuring frequency in Hz.
  • Press the "Calculate" button.
  • As the result the repeatability in mm is indicated.
  • You can also calculate the resulting measuring frequency after entering the distance and repeatability.
Degree of reflection:
6% 18% 50% 70% 90%

Calculation of repeatability:
Distance [mm] (200 - 10000*)
Measuring frequency [Hz] (1 - 50)
Repeatability +/- [mm]
* depending on degree of reflection

Calculation of measuring frequency:
Distance [mm] (200 - 10000*)
Repeatability +/- [mm] (<60)
Measuring frequency [Hz]
* depending on degree of reflection
