PART NO: HXPP10 DISPLAY

Multipoint 3D and 2D monitoring possible
Low Cost Two Transceivers + Display $198 in hundreds
Size (50 x 50 x 23 mm)
Display letter height 25.4 mm (1")

The position readout series come in sets of three, two position transponders, transponder 0, transponder 1 and one readout display. The display shows the distance from one transponder to another in terms of millimeters.

Distance Range 0 to 9999 millimeters
Precision 1 mm.

The Display

A four digit display, one inch LED letters, this display connects directly to the serial port of the Point to Point distance measuring device. It displays the distance between the two devices.

2D and 3D multipoint example

The illustration below shows one possible situation where an object is tracked on a XY plane. Only two distances are really needed say D1 and D2 to get 2 dimensional coordinates. But the setup shown below will work well with transceivers on all sides. And if one more transceiver was added on top, 3D XYZ coordinates become available. Object may be moving with respect to fixed transponders 0 or both may be moving relative to each other, transponder0 can also be placed on the object so the object can know its own position.
