			===General===
			The 1146 can detect the distance of an object from 1mm to 4mm away. Objects with smooth, opaque surfaces are typically easier to detect.

			The 1146 voltage changes from 4.5V to 0.15V as the object is moving closer to the sensor from a distance of 4mm. When the object is more than 4mm away, you may notice some change in voltage as the object enters or leaves the sensor's field of view, but this value does not represent the actual distance to the object. The exact equation for the sensor is as follows:

			{{UGSensorFormula\|distance (mm)}} The Formula to translate voltage into distance is:
