Floor material detection sensor

The 300 kHz Floor Material Detection Sensor is an ultrasonic-based device designed to identify and differentiate between various types of floor surfaces—such as tile, carpet, wood, or concrete—by analyzing acoustic reflections. This model features a digital signal output, enabling seamless integration into embedded systems, robots, or smart appliances.

Operating at 300 kHz, it provides a balance of high sensitivity, compact size, and surface discrimination, making it ideal for detecting subtle differences in floor materials in real-time.

🔸 Key Features

• Frequency: 300 kHz – optimized for detailed surface reflection analysis

• Output Type: Digital signal – easy to integrate, low processing overhead

• High surface sensitivity – can detect subtle texture and hardness variations

• Compact and robust – fits into small platforms like service robots

• Consistent detection – unaffected by color or pattern of flooring

🔸 Applications

• 🤖 Autonomous Mobile Robots – surface-aware navigation and traction control

• 🧹 Smart Cleaning Devices – adjust cleaning mode based on floor type

• 🏭 Factory or Warehouse AGVs – detect floor transitions for path planning

• 🦼 Medical and Service Robots – ensure safe travel across mixed flooring
