Scatter
The scatter component measures the intensity of the light seen beside the laser signal.
The scatter signal can be explained as the amount of scattered light received in a
sampling window at a distance from the peak laser position.

Sensor
The Ruler3000 camera is based on a unique SICK CMOS sensor which has a 2D pixel
matrix, row-parallel AD-converters, and a processor architecture that enables image
processing directly on the sensor. The technology is called ROCC, which means Rapid
On-Chip Calculation. For technical details,
