B) Background suppression sensor
C) Standard diffuse
D) Retro-reflective

Question

A background suppression sensor is designed to only detect objects within a specific distance range while ignoring the background. This is achieved through the use of specialized optics or algorithms that filter out extraneous signals. Wide-angle diffuse and standard diffuse sensors are more general purpose and would not be as effective in this specific application. Retro-reflective sensors rely on the object reflecting the sensor's beam back to the receiver and would not work well if the background is reflective as well.
