I am planning an outdoor pallet-presence station with detection distances that change as trucks enter the bay. Besides maximum range, which application details should I compare before choosing between HX-9130 and HX-94100? The difficult cases are dark wrapping film, direct sunlight and partially blocked pallets.

Start with the nearest and farthest target distance, minimum object size, required update time and the reflectivity of the darkest target. I would also record the mounting height, sun direction and expected contamination on the optical window.

If possible, capture sample scans at the actual dock before committing to a model. Compare usable point density and detection stability in the worst target and lighting condition, rather than selecting only from the headline range.
