Field of view

The Rx (or collector) exclusion zone includes all module assembly tolerances. It is used to define the cover glass

dimensions. The cover glass opening must be equal to or wider than the exclusion zone.

The detection volume represents the applicative or system FoV in which a target is detected, and a distance

measured. The Rx lens or the Rx aperture determines the detection volume. It is narrower than the exclusion

zone.

Note:

The detection volume depends on the following: environment and sensor configuration, target distance,

reflectance, ambient light level, sensor resolution, sharpener, ranging mode, and integration time.
