Re: Banner Sensors

' it only seems to detect objects and distance."

I have no clue what you mean by this. The Banner Sensors emit a beam of pulsed light, and look for that beam to be reflected back

if it sees the reflection, it turns on

the beam is focused somewhat like a laser pointer - last year you could see the dot so you had a better idea of what it was hitting

it will reflect off retroreflective tape up to 20 feet away, and off other surfaces that are much closer.

so I dont understand what you mean when you say it will detect objects

and distances?!

maybe if you could explain what you want to use them for we can give you better answers.
