Patent ID: 10488550

Abstract:
An optoelectronic sensor (10) for detecting objects comprises a light transmitter (12) for transmitting a light beam (16), a rotatable deflection unit (18) for periodically deflecting the light beam (16), an angle measuring unit (30) for determining an angular position of the deflection unit (18), a light receiver (26) for generating a reception signal from a reflected light beam (22), wherein the angle measuring unit (30) comprises an image sensor (32) moving with the deflection unit and arranged in the direction of a stationary part (44, 46) of the sensor (10), or a stationary image sensor (32) arranged in the direction of the deflection unit (18), further comprising a computing unit (36) to determine a relative movement of the deflection unit (18) with respect to the sensor (10) from a signal of the image sensor (32).
