Photo Sensor

More Information

A photoelectric sensor, also known as a photodetector or photosensor, is a device that detects and responds to light or other electromagnetic radiation. These sensors typically use a light emitter and a light receiver to detect the presence or absence of an object, or to measure changes in light intensity.

Here's a more detailed explanation:
1.Light Detection: Photoelectric sensors operate by emitting a light beam (often infrared or visible) and detecting changes in the received light.
2.Object Recognition: The sensor can detect objects by either observing the light beam being interrupted or reflected by the object.
3.Applications: These sensors are widely used in various industrial applications, such as automation, safety systems, and manufacturing processes.
