[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The ...

Laser Proximity Sensors use laser beams to detect the presence or absence of objects within a certain range. They are used in security systems, robotics, automation, and industrial processes, where ...

The unassuming proximity sensor, a tiny component nestled within your smartphone, plays a crucial role in ensuring a seamless calling experience. It detects the proximity of your face during calls, ...

Whether it’s vehicles that are used in agricultural environments, or on construction sites, all off-highway vehicles have one thing in common – they operate in extremely challenging conditions.

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

As the construction industry and the professional services that design projects for it continues to confront disruptions stemming from COVID-19, shifting project types, increased competition, and a ...

Time-of-flight (ToF) sensors open up new application areas and use cases for proximity sensing and presence detection technologies, and these sensors can add valuable functionalities and intelligence ...

The lack of sensory feedback provided by prosthetic hands dramatically limits the utility of the device. Peripheral nerve interfaces are now able to produce stable somatosensory percepts for upper ...
