In the past, capacitive sensors for automotive electronics were rarely used, as they were deemed to be hard to control, difficult to read out, sensitive to aging, and temperature dependent. On the ...

Most proximity sensors use an electromagnetic field to sense the presence of a target metal. But there are times when it's necessary to sense nonmetallic materials such as plastics, liquids, or ...

The AS8580 launched by ams OSRAM adopts a robust capacitive sensing solution based on IQ demodulation technology, which can ...

Opportunities in tactile sensors span varied sectors, including robotics, electronics, and smart homes. As tactile sensors enable human-like perception, the integration of multiple sensing ...

The global capacitive sensors market is witnessing significant expansion, driven by the increasing adoption of multi-touch capacitive sensing technology in consumer electronics, automotive, and ...

There are generally two types of accelerometers currently available—capacitor-based and thermal versions—and both are microelectromechanical devices (MEMS). So what’s the difference between the two?

Capacitive sensing libraries for the Arduino and just about every other microcontroller platform have been around for ages now, but if you’d like to put a slightly complex cap sense pad in a PCB ...

Advancements in mechanical sensors are enabling the detection of subtle forces, reshaping technologies in healthcare, ...

The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS) is a gesture sensitive functional textile touch-pad interface for physical devices. The CTS is produced as a single piece of fabric requiring only two electrodes to ...
