Abstract:
1. A light signal transmitter for an optical sensor, comprising: a multilayer printed circuit board formed from two outer layers and at least one inner layer, each layer extending in a plane such that the outer layers and the at least one inner layer are substantially parallel; a semiconductor-based light source for generating light, the semiconductor-based light source being arranged in a structural space between the outer layers of the printed circuit board, the semiconductor-based light source emitting a light beam in a light exit direction, the light exit direction being oriented substantially parallel to the layers of the printed circuit board; and a deflection element to deflect the light beam emitted by the semiconductor-based light source in a substantially perpendicular direction with respect to the layers of the printed circuit board, the deflection element being an optical module having a reflection unit and an optical lens.
