| Summary: | Nowadays, inductive proximity sensor and mobile robot are one of the most interesting topics attracting scientists. With enhancement techniques from using sensor for controlling mobile robots which can be developed more in the future. Additionally, measuring of static performance of inductive proximity sensor is also essential because the testing and navigation systems perform more exactly by result information from the experiment by assaying the output signal. In this paper, the hand-made measurement system is used to verify again the static performance of proximity sensor with ferrous, non-ferrous and alloy metal tape. Simultaneously, improve static properties of typical tape metal through the relationship between the output signal and the sensing distance of sensor. According to theoretical basis, the relationship of the static parameters can be determined such as: thickness of metal, sensing distance, dimension of metal, and so on. The testing results have shown the output signal of proximity sensor in the model and theory is not similar. The final data will accommodate some information about the relationship of the thickness of metal tape and the sensing distance of proximity sensor, the different affects of position sensor and optimum operation range of mobile robot.
