Proximity Sensor Counter: A Handy Tool for Counting and Sensor Testing
Proximity Sensor Counter is a free Android app developed by keuwlsoft in the Utilities & Tools category. This app utilizes the proximity sensor in your device to count objects passing in front of it or to test the sensing capability of the sensor.
The proximity sensor, typically located near the speaker at the top of your phone, is commonly used to detect when the phone is placed to the head during phone calls. It consists of an Infrared (IR) transmitter and receiver and returns distance values in centimeters to nearby objects. While most sensors only report near or far values, this app allows you to use the sensor as a counter, incrementing each time something passes in front of it.
Proximity Sensor Counter offers several features to enhance your counting experience. You can choose to detect objects on rising or falling past the detection level and reduce double counts with an optional no-count wait after detection. The app also provides a graph and gauge to display proximity distance values, allowing you to visualize the data. The counts are indicated on the graph and can be accompanied by an optional 'click' sound.
It's important to note that the performance of proximity sensors can vary in terms of sampling speed, resolution, and accuracy across different devices. Therefore, the readings provided by this app are for indication purposes only.
Whether you need a reliable counting tool or simply want to explore the capabilities of your device's proximity sensor, Proximity Sensor Counter is a useful app to have.
