According to an embodiment of the invention, the invention relates to an apparatus for dispensing liquid, which apparatus is arranged to detect an object (103, 203, 506) and to control the dispensing of liquid. Said apparatus includes a first signal source (101, 201, 502) which is arranged to generate a first beam pulse (102, 202, 504) and a second signal source (108, 208, 503) which is arranged to generate a second beam pulse (109, 209, 505) and the propagation paths of said beam pulses intersect in relation to each other. Said apparatus also includes a receiver (105, 205, 507) which is arranged to receive reflected parts (104, 204) of said first beam pulse and which is arranged to receive reflected parts (110, 215) of said second beam pulse, the parts reflected from said first and second beam pulses being reflected from said object which is located on the propagation path of the first and the second beam pulse. Furthermore, said system comprises a signal processing unit (107, 207) which is arranged to detect said object based on the parts reflected from said beam pulses received by said receiver and, based on this detection, arranged to control the dispensing of liquid. |
