Proximity sensors
Understand your surroundings using our high-speed, high-resolution AFE for time-of-flight (ToF) based proximity and distance sensing.
Why choose our proximity and distance sensors?
System design flexibility
Detect near and far objects of various shapes, sizes, colors, materials and reflectivity levels in a wide or narrow field of view (FoV).
Precision distance measurements
Accurately detect objects with a 3-mm resolution at a range of 3 centimeters to 15 meters.
Target localization
Determine object distance and direction using up to 3 sensing zones.

OPT3101 system estimator tool
The OPT3101 system estimator tool analyzes the performance of the OPT3101, which is a time-of-flight (ToF)-based, long-range proximity and distance sensor analog front end (AFE). The tool determines if the OPT3101 is able to meet design requirements under various conditions.
OPT3101 software development kit (SDK)
The OPT3101 software development kit (SDK) provides a C++ library of functions to control and calibrate systems using the OPT3101, which is a time-of-flight (ToF)-based, long-range proximity and distance sensor analog front end (AFE).
OPT3101 configurator tool
The OPT3101 time-of-flight (ToF) analog front end (AFE) configurator tool is an offline graphical user interface (GUI) for customizing the configuration of the OPT3101, which is a ToF-based, long-range proximity and distance sensor AFE. OPT3101CONFIG-SW provides a high level of (...)
