Description
Improve the distance and sensitivity of your P.A.D.S or PING))) acoustic sensor with the Cyperbolic Reflector!
How does it work? The Cyperbolic Reflector's unique cylindrical parabolic curve works by focusing the transmitted acoustic beam in one dimension while letting it continue to diverge in the other. The result is up to a 4 times improvement in distance & sensitivity. Compare for yourself; *When mounted horizontally ----- The detector remains sensitive in the horizontal direction ----- Sensitivity to ground reflections is reduced *There are no reflections directly back from the reflector so false triggers are eliminated Material: Vacuum formed impact resistant PETG Plastic Dimensions: Width: 3 inches, Depth: 2.125 inches, 3.25 inches (without feet) Make It!
The Cyperbolic Reflector comes with mounting hardware;
2x 4-40 screws and nuts for Perbolia P.A.D.S or Parallax PING))) sensor mounting 2x plastic spacing washers 4x clear plastic bumper feet (user applied) Notes: 1) The Cyperbolic Reflector does not include a sensor. 2) Mounting holes for a P.A.D.S or PING))) sensor are pre-drilled. Other sensors can be mounted by drilling the appropriate mounting holes in the base. Resources
