ABSTRACT:
Optical distance measuring apparatus has a focusing lens (16) directing light reflected from a target toward a detector (18), The lens has discrete or continuous zones each associated with a target distance. The area of the lens zones increases with an increase in associated target distance so as to compensate for a reduction in intensity according to the inverse square law.
