Question

Actual Detection Range and FOV of STHS34PF80?

Hello everyone,

I’ve been working with the STHS34PF80 sensor and would appreciate some insights regarding its detection range and field of view (FOV). In my tests, I’ve observed that the sensor detects presence effectively up to a range of about 1 meter when I set the presence threshold to 100 LSB. Additionally, the FOV seems to be around 30 degrees.

I’m wondering if these results align with what others have experienced. Is this the typical range and FOV for this sensor under similar conditions, or could there be some optimization or calibration that I’m missing? Any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

    Hi @mobaid ,

    We see no problem in the used configuration.

    The expected FOV and detection range are much larger.

    Can you give us more information about the test environment and conditions?
