Infrared ranging sensor
Infrared ranging sensor
(OP)
We've investigated ultrasonic ranging sensors to measure distances between 2" and 24" but they have some draw backs in our application. We're now looking at infrared (I believe many video cameras use this technique) for ranging but I've found very little about it. Does anyone have an idea as to where I can find a source for the components requred to build such a device? This would be an OEM application so cost is a consideration. Thank you.

Dear Sir,
If you want to controle the inside pressure of the cylinder, why don't you use a pressure switch.Additionally if you want to measure the distance between the ends of the cylinder,I'll suggest you to use a position sensor based on magnetostrictive effect.Try a look on www.balluf.com.
