  • Page 8: Function Principle

    Function Principle ShapeDrive G4 sensors are designed to detect the geometry of an object in three dimensions. Therefore, they are also called 3D sensors. The underlying functional principle is based on triangulation (see Fig. 1). A special light module (1) projects a sequence of patterns onto the object (2) and a camera (3) captures the reflected light.
