A distance sensor is an electronic device used to measure the distance between the sensor itself and an object. These sensors utilize various methods such as ultrasonic waves, infrared light, or laser technology to determine the distance accurately. They are commonly used in robotics, automotive applications, industrial automation, and smart home devices for tasks such as obstacle detection, object measurement, and proximity sensing. Distance sensors are valued for their precision, reliability, and ability to function in a variety of environmental conditions.
