AFBR-S50 Precision Time-of-Flight (ToF) Sensors

The advanced 3D multipixel ToF sensor from Broadcom is ideal for 3D range, motion, and gesture sensing

Image of Broadcom AFBR-S50MV85G 3D Multipixel ToF Sensor The AFBR-S50 ToF sensor from Broadcom is designed for precise distance and motion measurement in industrial applications. This sensor module integrates an 850 nm vertical cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) light source and supports up to 3,000 frames per second with up to 16 illuminated pixels. The AFBR-S50 is optimized for medium-range sensing applications (typically up to 10 m), making it ideal for 3D range, motion, and gesture sensing. Its compact design and robust performance ensure reliable operation even in challenging environments. The advanced features of the AFBR-S50, such as ambient light suppression and dual frequency mode, provide unambiguous range measurements up to 100 m. This versatile sensor is drop-in compatible within the AFBR-S50 sensor platform, allowing easy integration into various systems. With its high accuracy and fast response time, the Broadcom AFBR-S50 is a perfect solution for industrial automation, robotics, and security applications.
