LeddarTech’s Solution
For this particular application, the LeddarOne Sensing Module is particularly
effective as it is small enough (2”) to be easily incorporated into an individual
conveyor train. The advanced optics in the LeddarOne—with its focused, yet
conic beam—allow it to precisely detect objects and measure distances in the 0
to 65 ft. range. Moreover, its low price point makes it an excellent option,
considering that multiple modules are required for this application.
The LeddarOne single-element sensor module:
 Provides excellent detection range
 Takes accurate and repeatable distance measurements in real time
 Performs well in harsh environments, as its LED diffused light source
makes it immune to ambient conditions
 Offers best overall performance for the price, compared with other
detection technologies
The Outcome
The customer integrated the LeddarOne
into their large monorail conveyor
controllers, fitting a sensing module in
each conveyor train section. The
LeddarOne was installed pointing forward
(in the direction of the motion) and
interfaced with the controllers to accurately
detect/measure how far the next conveyor
is and how fast it is going, thus ensuring
no collisions and keeping product and
equipment damage to a strict minimum.
