A breakdown of the various factors that determine the suitability of the implementation presented in this project:
\begin{description}
\item[Sensor Suitability] \hfill \\ The wavelength of the infrared laser used in this project of \SI{860}{\nano\meter} was shown to be unsuitable for use with the conveyor belt during the on-site testing. This is most likely due to the absorption spectrum of the belt material that had very flow reflectivity at this infrared wavelength. The similarly black colored belt used in laboratory testing however was visible to the LIDAR sensor. A further study of belt materials commonly deployed in the field is necessary.

\item[Temperature Suitability] \hfill \\ On the higher end of the temperature range, the LIDAR sensor used in this project is the limiting factor. The maximum temperature of \SI{30}{\celsius} is easily exceeded in particularly hot weather or even in direct sunlight. Design of the housing must account for adequate cooling, as well as reflectivity, should the system be deployed in view of direct sunlight.
