This pioneering technology accurately pinpoints the position of obstacles around a vehicle in real time, significantly improving driving safety. Hyundai and Kia unveiled Vision Pulse, using Ultra Wide ...

The latest addition to the extensive, award-winning range of BAUMER sensors is the NexSonic UF300, an ultra-compact 18mm flat ultrasonic sensor with a 3-meter sensing range and ideally suited to ...

STMicroelectronics' TMOS sensors handle presence sensing using a 5- to 20-µm passive IR sensor. This provides more accurate results as well as information about the distance rather than just a basic ...

When demanding sensing applications occur in challenging environments such as in the agriculture, construction, and mobile machinery industries, it is important to install robust and reliable sensors ...

As an added bonus, ProTac can be set to a "flicker mode" in which the PDLC continuously (and rapidly) switches back and forth between its transparent and opaque states. This allows the system to ...

Presenters at MD&M West highlight the advantages of IO-Link, a manufacturer-independent digital communication protocol/interface, while introducing a software solution. Baumer Sensor Suite (BSS) is a ...

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 ...

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 ...

GM is slowly shifting its crossovers and SUVs from using motion sensors to operate power liftgates to proximity sensors used specifically for the AutoSense Liftgate feature. Power liftgates with ...

Physicists developed a technique to arrange atoms in much closer proximity than previously possible, down to 50 nanometers. The group plans to use the method to manipulate atoms into configurations ...

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, ...

Application characteristics help specifiers choose the best discrete sensor type. Industrial automation systems depend on sensors to detect what is going on with machinery and products for effective ...
