Color Sensitivity
The effects of object reflectivity on cutoff distance, though small, may be important
for some applications. It is expected that at any given cutoff setting, the actual cutoff
distance for lower reflectance targets will be slightly shorter than for higher reflectance
targets. This behavior is known as color sensitivity.
For example, an excess gain of 1 (see page 5) for an object that reflects 1/10 as much
light as the 90% white card is represented by the horizontal graph line at excess gain
= 10. This line intersects the curve at approximately 190 mm. Thus, an object of this
reflectivity results in a far limit cutoff of approximately 190 mm (7.5") for the 200 mm
cutoff model, for example; and 190 mm represents the cutoff for this sensor and target.
The excess gain curves on page 5 were generated using a white test card of 90%
reflectance. Objects with reflectivity of less than 90% reflect less light back to the
sensor, and thus require proportionately more excess gain in order to be sensed
with the same reliability as more reflective objects. When sensing an object of very
low reflectivity, it may be especially important to sense it at or near the distance of
maximum excess gain.
