An Object Detection Sensor functions by emitting signals and scanning their environment using the chosen technology. These signals bounce off nearby objects and return to the sensor, which then processes the received data to determine the presence, location, size, and sometimes even the shape of detected objects. This information is then utilized by the equipment to make informed decisions, such as adjusting speed and direction to avoid collisions and triggering alerts for the operator.

Attributes:
• High impact resistance.
• Withstands vibrations and shocks.
• High detection range for early warning.
• Fast response time for real-time monitoring.
• Resistance to dust and debris accumulation.

Applications:
An Object Detection Sensor is placed at the front, rear, and sides of the equipment and near moving parts, providing real-time feedback to the camera monitor to alert operators of nearby obstacles and potential collisions.
