surface of the target object. Do not tilt the sensor towards the

target object.

Shiny Targets

If the target object has a glossy surface, incline the sensor by 5#

to 10# as shown below, provided that the sensor is not influenced

by any background objects.

Glossy object

If there is a mirror--like object below the sensor, the sensor may

not be in stable operation. Tilt the sensor or keep the sensor far

enough away from the mirror--like object to avoid interfering

reflections as shown below.
