Ray-RT proximity sensors have a built-in rangefinder system that detects changes to the length of a light path. When an object—however shiny—moves into an automatic door opening, the unit will sense a potential collision and issue the appropriate alarm. This eliminates the problem that some systems have of being “fooled” by reflective surfaces that provide alternate light paths.
