Key Features of  LaserGauge DSP Sensors

There are two functions to a LaserGauge® system: capturing the profile, also called scanning, and processing the profile. In some of the models, the scanning is performed by one hardware component, the sensor, and the processing is performed by a second hardware component, the controller or a PC. However, the DSP model sensor has on-board processing capability so there is no need for a controller or PC. The two types of systems, DSP/USB or Sensor/Controller, have different advantages and the user’s requirements will determine which system would be best for the application.
