- Abstract:
- In this paper some remarks about an innovative sensor for discrete distance measurement developed by the authors are discussed. The purpose of the proposed sensor is the measurement of remote target position independently on the property of the reflective surface. Application in the field of visually impaired people is in the large context getting serious advantage by the use of such apparatus. The possibility to obtain a low cost sensor device assuring the required performances is investigated. Nonlinear post-processing of the signals given by the sensor has been implemented improving the quality of the gathered information. Main features of the proposed system are its insensitivity to the target material and also to the influence parameters (e.g. light condition), high flexibility and reliability.
