• Differences Between 905nm and 1550nm Laser Wavelengths in Distance Measurement 2024-07-25

  Laser distance sensors and rangefinders are essential tools that measure the distance of target objects by emitting laser pulses and detecting their reflections. The choice of laser wavelength, such as 1550nm or 905nm, significantly influences their performance, safety, and application suitability. Here's a comprehensive comparison of these two wavelengths across several key factors. 1. Eye Safety 1550nm Lasers: These lasers are generally safer for the human eye because the cornea and lens absorb this wavelength, preventing it from reaching the retina, which can sustain permanent damage. This safety feature allows for higher power outputs while remaining within eye-safe limits, making them often classified as Class 1 eye-safe lasers even at higher power levels. 905nm Lasers: Although they can be made safe, 905nm lasers typically require lower power levels to maintain eye safety. To stay within Class 1 safety standards, their power must be limited, which can restrict their performance in terms of range and resolution.
