LV-MaxSonar-EZ4 - High-Performance Ultrasonic Range Finder

The LV-MaxSonar-EZ4 from Maxbotix offers very short to long-range detection and ranging, in an incredibly small package with ultra low power consumption. The LV-MaxSonar-EZ4 detects objects from 0-inches to 254-inches (6.45-meters) and provides sonar range information from 6-inches(15.24cm) out to 254-inches with 1-inch(2.54cm) resolution. Objects between 0-inches and 6-inches range as 6-inches. The interface output formats included are pulse width output, analog voltage output, and asynchronous serial digital output.

Many applications require a narrower beam or lower sensitivity than the LV-MaxSonar-EZ1. MaxBotix is offering the EZ2 , EZ3 & EZ4 with progressively narrower beam angles allowing the sensor to match the application.
