A scanner near a machine guard occasionally reports points on or behind the glass. Cleaning helps only temporarily. What installation changes are most useful before attempting software filtering?
Reducing false returns from a glass guard panel

Check for reflections from bright internal surfaces, and test with the final lighting because small geometry changes can redirect a strong return.
