The opto-electronic sensor OPTIMESS S1 CCD is a device for no-contact distance measurement. 
This sensor distinguishes itself by a great independence of the measurement accuracy on different material surfaces and from the ambient light.
     
The OPTIMESS S1 CCD works according to the triangulation principle. The laser spot projected by a laser diode via an optical system is represented at an angle on a CCD line by a receiving optical system. The processor integrated in the sensor processes the optical distance information and outputs them as an analog value or via the CAN bus.
