Welcome to Nexgen Sensors – Where Intelligent Environments Begin
The NS118 Distance sensor is a simple low voltage analog 24GHz mmWave distance and human presence detector. It can easily integrate into an existing building control system. Connect the sensor output signal to an analog input of a controller, gateway, or data acquisition unit. The distance or presence signal can be used for occupancy or intrusion detection. Whereas the raw distance signal could be used to continuously monitor distance to the nearest objects entering, residing, and leaving a space.

The mmWave distance sensor can detect relative distance to objects within a field of view. It is not limited to moving objects or body temperature like passive infrared. The device is suitable for ceiling or wall mount applications. Place the sensor in a suitable location where object distance should be detected.
The sensitivity can be adjusted with a simple jumper position. This selection changes the gain of an analog amplifier. Choose a gain suitable for typical distance range. A high gain will detect lower levels. Whereas a lower gain will minimize noise in the signal.
The output mode can be changed from a continuously varying analog signal to a digital signal. The digital signal is produced by a comparator with a threshold at half scale (i.e. 5V) or quarter scale (i.e. 2.5V). Use the analog mode to continuously monitor levels. Or use the digital mode to trigger actuators at a specific event threshold.
Changing the sensitivity and choosing the digital output scale can adjust the event threshold. Setting sensitivity high and digital scale low will reduce the event threshold to a minimum and detect the smallest changes in levels. Whereas, setting sensitivity low and digital scale high will increase the threshold to a maximum and detect only the largest changes in levels.
