It seems that the white iPhone 4, launched less than a week ago, has more differences from the black one. Apart from being thicker by 0.2 mm, it also has a more recessed camera lens and ...

Geneva, October 8, 2014 - STMicroelectronics (STM), a global semiconductor leader serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, has revealed a new highly accurate optical ...

[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 ...

STMicroelectronics has created a time-of-flight distance sensor for industrial use. VL53L4ED works over -40 to +105°C and in high ambient light, and provides “provides distance measurement to objects ...

I’m working on a project involving the need to precisely move a tool based on the measured distance to an object. Okay, yeah, it’s a CNC mill. Anyway, I’d heard of time of fight sensors and decided to ...

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.

Most design engineers of consumer and industrial products always look for various ways to achieve their desired goals in applications ranging from wearables to handheld devices to industrial ...

AutomationDirect has expanded its photoelectric sensor offering to include OPT series short and long range distance sensors. Available with either Class 1 or Class 2 laser options, the distance ...

Proximity detection adds many smart features to the devices we use.For example, when making a call with a phone held to your ear, face detection using proximity sensing can disable the touchscreen and ...
