I am looking to build a system for measuring the velocity of an opaque object sliding up and down a chute, sort of like an elevator traveling along the shaft.
I'm trying to figure out if I can use a pair of photoelectric sensors mounted at a predetermined distance apart, and each will be "tripped" as the object moves past them. The time taken will be recorded, and the velocity calculated accordingly.
Another option I thought is to use a distance sensing sensor.
Can anyone help?
