Protractor Proximity Sensor Case

thingiverse

This is a case for the Protractor Proximity Sensor. Not only does it safeguard the Protractor, it also optimizes sensor performance by shielding it from ambient light to expand its functional range. This should be crafted from a black material to suppress reflections. It's advisable not to perform post-processing - leave the finish rough as this will help minimize light reflections. Fine-tune wall thickness in the attached OpenSCAD file to achieve optimal results with your printer setup. The case shown in the picture was printed at Shapeways using PLA, and the model should work well for any FDM printer. The Protractor is a proximity sensor that accurately detects angles to nearby objects and open pathways. It's extremely useful for robotic applications such as Mini Sumo, Bulldozer, Object Collection, Obstacle Avoidance, Maze Solving, and many more.
