Parsec Distance Sensor

High‑Precision Depth Sensing for Robotics

 

 

The Parsec Distance Sensor delivers fast, accurate, multi‑zone depth sensing in a rugged industrial package. Designed for robotic navigation, obstacle detection, and spatial awareness, Parsec combines millimeter‑level precision with reliable performance in real‑world environments.

With 64 independent depth zones, Parsec measures distances from 2 cm to 400 cm at up to ~1 mm precision, all within a wide 65° field of view. Choose 15 Hz or 60 Hz output modes to balance responsiveness and system load.

An invisible 940 nm IR VCSEL emitter ensures reliable sensing without visible light, while Class 1 eye‑safe certification makes Parsec safe for use around people and collaborative robots.

Built for seamless integration, Parsec supports CAN‑FD with automatic CAN 2.0 fallback, plus USB‑C for data and backup power. A wide 3.3 V–30 V input range, reverse polarity protection, and fully sealed housing ensure dependable operation in harsh, debris‑filled environments.

Parsec Distance Sensor — precise perception, simplified integration, and industrial‑grade durability.
