The
Intella-Sense Optical Control Device is a time tested
design that has solved thousands of difficult and
demanding inspection problems throughout many industries.
It combines the toughness of fiber optics, the
intelligence of microcomputer control, the precision of
photonic measurement, and the ease of digital entry, to
create a truly unique and useful tool. All this and
more at the cost of many conventional sensors. |

The
Intella-Sense is an electro-optical system composed of precision
infrared (or optically visible red) optics mated to a
specifically designed and programmed microcomputer. A beam
is sent through a light guide that is aligned with and
irradiates the part process of interest. A second light
guide (frequently the same light guide) collects any residual
light energy and conducts it back to a detector. There,
the amount of received energy is converted into a digital number
and displays as the signal level. This level continuously
compared to two sets of programmed limits that, in turn, control
the state of two optoisolated outputs.
Other parameters, such as mode (light on/dark on), turn on
delay, and turn off delay, can be programmed.
Additionally, the optoisolated input can be used to substitute
an entirely different set of parameters via remote control.
