Title:
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR INSPECTING SENSOR SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/017429
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A sensor system (100) is provided with a light-emitting element for emitting a detection light (L1), a translucent cover (120) for allowing transmission of the detection light (L1), and a scanning mechanism for varying the emission direction of the detection light (L1) in at least one direction (D1). A light-receiving device (210) is provided with a plurality of inspection light-receiving elements (211a-211g) arranged along the first direction (D1). The light-receiving device (210) is disposed on the optical path of the detection light (L1) transmitted through the translucent cover (120). An inspection processor (220) outputs a determination result (R) indicating the presence/absence of an abnormality in the translucent cover (120) on the basis of whether each of the plurality of inspection light-receiving elements (211a-211g) receives the detection light (L1) normally.
