Duet IR Height Sensor is designed to detect a precise target height by measuring the reflection of light from two LEDs. Because the LEDs reflect at different heights, the sensor can trigger accurately across a range of surface types. Optimised for 3D printing applications, it is commonly used for bed probing and Z homing, but it can also be applied in other motion control systems where reliable height detection is required.
Key Features
- Accurate Height Detection: Uses dual infrared LEDs to detect a trigger height.
- Surface Versatility: Works across a variety of surfaces and materials.

It does as advertised and appears to be very accurate. I use it with the Duet 3d wi fi board. I am that impressed with Duet thinking of buying another for my bigger printer.

Cheaper than a BLtouch, requires less wiring/setup and is a much better probe in my opinion, it is however a little more awkward to mount, this is the latest V1.3 Version and I highly recommend it, setting up my Z height and map has never been so easy!

Big improvement on the standard Ormerod probe.
