Introducing a Human Detection Sensor Unaffected by Target Color or Ambient Light

The KM Series utilizes advanced triangulation technology to ensure consistent limited-reflective detection. Its defining advantage is the ability to detect targets at a set distance regardless of clothing color or surface reflectivity. Furthermore, it boasts exceptional resistance to ambient light interference. Capable of stable operation even under intense lighting conditions of up to 30,000 lux (under specific conditions), it is the perfect choice for embedded applications like automatic ticket gates and self-checkout kiosks where reliability is paramount.
Our extensive lineup covers detection distances from a minimum of 5cm up to 2 meters. With a wide operating voltage range of 5V to 24V, you can select the perfect sensor to match your specific system design requirements.

Proven Track Record in Station Ticket Gates and Office Security Systems

The KM Series is the go-to choice for high-reliability environments, boasting a proven installation record in railway ticket gates and office security lanes. The biggest challenge in gate operation is false triggering caused by facility lighting or sunlight.
Our sensors overcome this with robust noise immunity, maintaining accuracy up to 30,000 lux (under specific conditions). Whether in a sunlit lobby or a bright station, the KM Series keeps your gates operating smoothly and accurately detecting passersby.

Maximize Energy Savings Without Compromising User Convenience

For always-on machines like ATMs, self-checkout kiosks, and vending machines, the KM Series is a game-changer for energy efficiency. Traditional systems often waste power by running at full capacity even when idle. Our sensors enable a smart "Sleep & Wake" function: your equipment can stay in a low-power standby mode until a user approaches. The moment presence is detected, the system instantly wakes up for a seamless user experience.
Thanks to our precise triangulation technology, this transition is reliable regardless of the environment or user attire, delivering dramatic energy savings without forcing customers to wait.
