  2. Photoelectric sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoelectric_sensor

    Conceptual through-beam system to detect unauthorized access to a secure door. If the beam is interrupted, the detector triggers an alarm. A photoelectric sensor is a device used to determine the distance, absence, or presence of an object by using a light transmitter, often infrared, and a photoelectric receiver. They are largely used in ...

  3. Thermopile laser sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermopile_laser_sensor

    When a laser beam hits the surface of a thermopile sensor, the incident radiation is absorbed within the coating layer and transformed into heat. This heat then induces a temperature gradient across the sensor given as = [K/m], where t is the thickness of the sensor. [9]

  4. Laser Doppler vibrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_Doppler_vibrometer

    This frequency shifted beam then is directed to the target. The motion of the target adds a Doppler shift to the beam given by f d = 2*v(t)*cos(α)/λ, where v(t) is the velocity of the target as a function of time, α is the angle between the laser beam and the velocity vector, and λ is the wavelength of the light.

  6. Transmissometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmissometer

    It operates by sending a narrow, collimated beam of energy (usually a laser) through the propagation medium. A narrow field of view receiver at the designated measurement distance determines how much energy is arriving at the detector, and determines the path transmission and/or extinction coefficient. [1]

  7. Laser rangefinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_rangefinder

    A laser rangefinder, also known as a laser telemeter, is a rangefinder that uses a laser beam to determine the distance to an object. The most common form of laser rangefinder operates on the time of flight principle by sending a laser pulse in a narrow beam towards the object and measuring the time taken by the pulse to be reflected off the ...

  8. Laser beam profiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_beam_profiler

    A laser beam profiler captures, displays, and records the spatial intensity profile of a laser beam at a particular plane transverse to the beam propagation path. Since there are many types of lasers— ultraviolet , visible , infrared , continuous wave , pulsed, high-power, low-power—there is an assortment of instrumentation for measuring ...

  9. Self-mixing interferometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-mixing_interferometry

    Set-up of a self-mixing interferometer with laser diode and monitor photodiode. Self-mixing or back-injection laser interferometry is an interferometric technique in which a part of the light reflected by a vibrating target is reflected into the laser cavity, causing a modulation both in amplitude and in frequency of the emitted optical beam.
