OPT3101: Usage for Multiple Emitters

Sadanori Kato

Part Number: OPT3101

Hi,

Will it only expand the field of view if using the multiple emitters as below ?
Or will it improve the measurement accuracy for the overlapping parts of the field of view ?

Best regards,

Hi Kato,

The different channels are time multiplexed so in terms of data reported by the sensor it just expands the FoV and allows separate zones. There is possibility to do additional processing on a uC to get more info from the device, but that is not something we handle on the OPT3101.

Best,

Alex
