TeraRanger Multiflex is the modular solution for short range (<2m) distance sensing applications.
Connect up to eight plug and play sensors on one flexible bus to create custom configurations and to place sensors where needed.
An array of calibrated distances in millimetres is streamed from the Multiflex Hub. It’s the ideal – and higher performance – alternative to ultrasound for shorter-range distance sensing, delivered as a convenient and easy to use kit.
A user manual is available on the TeraRanger website, and a ROS (Robot Operating System) node will help you get up and running quickly.
