Extra range for colour sensor
The new F50 colour sensor from Sensopart combines a white LED with a unique patented optical system.
The FT 50C is the first colour sensor in the world to operate with white light: it also detects moving objects at varying distances without difficulty.
The colours or ranges of colour to be detected can be programmed very easily, and the sensor is particularly compact and economical in comparison to conventional colour sensors.
"Thanks to these new features and the excellent price-performance ratio, our colour sensor was able to win over the jury", said Dr Theodor Wanner, Managing Director of SensoPart.
"And we were once again able to show that you don't have to be one of the biggest to be the best.
This gives us a particular reason to rejoice over today's prize!".
With its share of the prize money, SensoPart will be supporting educational institutions with the aim of attracting students and freshly qualified youngsters to the rapid growing optical sensor industry.
