1. General
The X-Eye Presence & Airbutton sensors can detect if a person is in front of the sensor and - if so - indicate the distance of
that person in relation to the sensor. Next to this, the sensor will provide an Airbutton trigger when a person places their hand
close to the sensor. This document provides explanation of the available functionalities and instructions on how to install and
integrate the sensor into your digital signage installation.
The information in this document is created for users who are familiar with the Nexmosphere API and are able to control a
basic setup with a Nexmosphere API controller. If this is not the case yet, please read the general documentation on the
Nexmosphere serial API first.
2. Product overview
The X-Eye Presence & Airbutton sensors are available in 2 different models:
XY-240
The shape of the models are different, please refer to the datasheets for mechanical dimensions.
The sensor specifications are as follows:
detection range
beam angle
The X-Eye Presence & Airbutton sensors utilize InfraRed laser
emitters with an SPAD receiving array and Time-of-Flight technology
to measure the distance of a person or object in relation to the
sensor. The working principle is that the sensor emits photons which
are reflected by the objects or persons in front of the sensor. The
reflected photons are received by and an array of photodetectors. By
measuring the time of flight of the reflected photons, the distance of
the person or object in front of the sensor is calculated.
