Applications you can build with Time-of-Flight distance measurement sensor modules

Presence, movement direction detection

Basic gesture recognition

Cliff detection for mobile robotics

Level monitoring (bins, waste, etc.)

Select from 1, 2 or 4 pixel modes - all in 1 sensor module
Address a variety of indoor sensing applications with 3 built-in pixel modes:

- 1 pixel mode: made for presence detection, level monitoring and other single-point distance measurement applications

- 2 pixel mode: use 2 zones to perform basic gesture recognition and simple bi-directional movement detection

- 4 pixel mode: a 2x2 pixel configuration makes it easy to detect changes in stock material surface, for instance, using 4 zones

Adapt performance to fit your needs!
For each single and multi-pixel operating mode choose between two ranging modes.

In long-range mode, benefit from the maximum detection capabilities up to 3.3 meters, whilst the close-range mode (from 3 cm to 1.35 m) offers a higher update rate, and increased accuracy.

With 3 pixel modes and 2 ranging modes, TeraRanger Evo Mini boosts 6 possible configuration options to adapt quickly and easily to your indoor sensing needs.

Enabling low-cost level sensing with ToF!
Looking to measure material fill level in bins, tanks or other containers? The Evo Mini is great for that! Monitor fill level as close as 3 cm from the sensor lens, and up to 3.3 meters. Benefit from a large coverage area (27° Field of View), and use the multi-pixel capabilities to get a simple idea on whether more material is piling up on one side of the container.

The sensors compact and low-cost design supports OEM and design-in projects, while the low power consumption is great for battery powered integrations.

Build your own sensor arrays with easy-to-assemble kits!
Need to detect obstacles from multiple angles at once? We’ve got you covered!

Build multi-sensor applications with TeraRanger Evo Mini Array kits. You can choose from kits with either 4 or 8 sensor modules. Each kit comes with a TeraRanger Evo Hub and compatible interface backboards for rapid, plug and play prototyping of custom sensor arrays. The Hub features a crosstalk avoidance system and outputs data via a single UART or USB connector.

Product design optimized for OEM and easy integration
Easily integrate Evo Mini. The shoulder design of the lens cover makes discreet mounting fast and easy, while the low power consumption (25 mA to 75 mA) is perfect for battery-operated systems.

Unlike alternative proximity sensors with open electronics in similar price range, Evo Mini features a robust ABS enclosure for increased protection.

Ready, Set, Code!
TeraRanger Evo Mini comes with extensive software support, including Arduino and Raspberry Pi sample codes and ROS nodes to facilitate mobile robotics applications. A free graphical user interface is also available, enabling you to stream distance data via USB to a Windows PC.
