Of course, many different types of distance measuring sensors exist but not all sensors are the same. Each sensor has its own advantages and disadvantages. At its most basic level, a distance ...

When it comes to measuring distance or movement, would you consider using radar in your design? For many years, the go-to for many applications has been ultrasonics or lasers for non-contact measuring ...

Fringe conference can be traced to the automatic processing of fringe patterns. The term “patterns” evokes an image of flowing lines elegantly wrapped around surface contours. However, automatic ...

The electronic gauge is designed for measuring back-to-back distances of railway, metro and tram wheels during checkups, examinations, repairs, and formation of wheel sets. Measurements are made ...

One of the biggest mistakes Tesla made last year was removing ultrasonic sensors from the cars without offering an alternative. With the 2022.45.11 software update, cars without ultrasonic sensors ...

A salvaged Tesla Model 3 could detect distances even after the front bumper containing the ultrasonic sensors was taken off. This finding is surprising considering that the car was running the 2022.28 ...

Sensors for the measurement of displacement based on a number of different physical principles are available for a wide range of applications. This article considers systems capable of resolutions of ...

Ultrasonics or ultrasound is a radar-like system that uses ultrasonic signals at frequencies above those typical for human hearing, usually above 16 to 20 kHz. The 40- to 70-kHz range tends to be most ...

A line of distance measurement sensors, the DT 60, DL 60, DT 500 and DS 500 are well suited for a variety of material handling, logistics and general manufacturing applications. The DT 60 is a ...
