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 ...

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 ...

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Self-flying drones and autonomous taxis that can safely operate in fog may sound futuristic, but new research at Sandia National Laboratories’ fog facility is bringing the future ...

Proximity sensors detect objects without physical contact. Most proximity sensors emit an electromagnetic field or beam and look for changes in the field. The object being sensed is called a target.

In a study published in Nature, researchers demonstrated a major improvement in the electronic quality of graphene by using proximity screening, a method that enhances charge uniformity and boosts ...

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 ...

Elliptic Labs, a provider of artificial intelligence (AI) software and virtual smart sensors, debuted “INNER BEAUTY,” AI-powered proximity sensors, on Xiaomi‘s most recent flagship products, the ...

NORTH RIDGEVILLE, Ohio -- North Ridgeville Public Works officials have begun using Hyfi water detection sensors to monitor water flow and water levels at key locations throughout the city. Six sensors ...
