Technology Overview
2Lightspeeds LightForce Technology
The LightForce technology refers to a unique and
highly advanced sensor system consisting of...
3Spectrum Detection Module
The brains of the LightForce system, the
detection module uses the most advanced
application of integrated circuit technologies.
Additional features include
- Patented Lightspeed Systems technology
- Only device of its kind that meets Automotive
Reliability Standards - Acts as both transmitter and receiver
- Measures 6 different levels of the light spectrum
- Completely programmable for different levels of
sensitivity - Sealed in weather-proof unit
- Innovative self-reprogramming capability
4Polymer-Based Fiber Optic Cable
The polymer core of the LightForce cable
represents the lastest design in fiber optic
technology.
Additional features include
- Increased strength and durability
- Operates at the highest bandwidths, much faster
than copper cabling - Extremely flexible in design
- Impervious to electro-magnetic interference (EMI)
- Not affected by electrical currents at any level
- Immune to lightning and other environmental
conditions
5System Function
The LightForce detection module transmits a light
signal through the optical fiber which is then
sensed by the receiver component.
Unlike traditional fiber optic cable, the
Lightspeed technology breaks the light signal
into 6 different levels of the light spectrum.
Receiver
Transmitter
Any bending of the sensor cable causes a change
in the light intensity, which signals the
detection module.

6System Applications
The strength of the LightForce system lies in its
wide range of applications for both security and
safety related environments.
With only an estimated 5-10 of the system
applications developed, the future of
Lightspeeds LightForce technology is limited
only by the imagination.
7Security Applications
Roof Detection Edge Detection Gravel
Detection Fence Detection
8Fence Detection
The LightForce system supplies a versatile,
customized perimeter detection program consisting
of the following components...
- Detector unit
- Aramid stretcher
- Tensed sensor cable
- Mounting accessories
9Fence Detection
The LightForce system uses a kevlar lined tensed
sensor cable which is first streched via the
aramid cable stretcher units.
The cable is then clamped to the existing
fencing, connected to the detection module, and
custom programmed to the desired specifications.
The LightForce system is compatible with all
types of fencing and walled perimeter structures
10Gravel Detection
An innovative gravel detection system is a strong
example of the systems application diversity.
11Gravel Detection
12Roof/Floor Detection
The versatile fiber optic cable can easily be
installed under Lightspeeds customized plastic
grade or tile.
13Roof Detection
14Safety Applications
While maintaining the dependability of
Lightspeeds detection module, the addition of a
pinched sensor cable ensures fast detection for
safety applications.
15Safety Applications
- Industrial Garage Doors
- Revolving Doors
- Busses
- Hydraulic Lifts
- Tail Lifts
- Lift Tables
- Dock Shelters
- Machines
