3.2 General functionality
The sensor measures the distance to an object to be measured by angle calculation (triangula-
tion principle). For this purpose, the sensor projects a laser point on the object to be measured.
This laser point is mapped on the receiver element by the receiving optics. The distance to the
object to be measured is calculated from the location of the image on the receiver element. The
measured distance is provided as a measured value via the following channels integrated in the
sensor:
