This Maxbotix MB1242 I2CXL-Maxsonar-EZ4 Ultrasonic Sensor Module is for indoor use only.
Features of the MB1242, I2CXL-MaxSonar-EZ4, include centimeter resolution, has the highest noise tolerance, and the narrowest beamwidth of any sensor in the I2CXL‑MaxSonar‑EZ sensor line, short to long-distance detection, range information from 20cm to 765cm, up to a 40Hz read rate, and an I2C interface.
The MB1242 is a great choice for applications where only larger objects need to be detected.
The MB1242 from the I2CXL‑MaxSonar‑EZ line of sensors is a very small, less than one cubic inch, ultrasonic sensor component module. This sensor comes with mounting holes provided on the circuit board for easy installation in nearly all applications.
