In this paper, different hardware solutions for proximity sensing are reviewed. The purpose of the review is to find the most accurate sensing method with the option to process raw data and to extend the system beyond one sensor. During the research proximity sensing system, derived from commercially available solutions, have been made. The developed system is intended to be used in the industrial environment to ensure safety of the humans working near heavy, moving equipment.
