General Description 

TOFrange-611 is a TOF range-finder module based on the epc611 chip. It allows distance measurement in a very cost effective design from a few centimeters up to several meters. The firmware is built to operate in a high dynamic range of up to 90dB. However, the lens is designed with aspheric lenses in order to reduce the required dynamic range as much as possible. A high dynamic range can be used even with a high measurement rate. The TOFrange-611 comes fully calibrated, so the user can simply readout the clean distance data. The device is designed in a lightweight but very stable plastic frame which allows it to be mounted to a fast rotating turnable. Mounting posts on top and on bottom allow various mounting locations and concepts.
