Designing with high-fidelity capacitive proximity sensors requires careful consideration of mechanical design, sensor placement/design, and end-application operating environments. Careful evaluation ...

Ganged buttons as a proximity sensor – Multiple sensor pads are combined in firmware to form a single proximity sensor thereby providing higher sensitivity. Flexible PCB – Flexible printed circuit ...

In this article, we’ll create three applications that retrieve light, proximity and motion data from a range of hardware and software sensors.

Jim • Omron: The main challenges of using proximity sensors for motion applications involve sensor size, accuracy, repeatability, response time, and reliability.

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 ...

Wide viewing angles with high output power rarely occur with most proximity sensors, making the HIR89 and HIR91 truly ideal for all proximity sensor applications such as smart phones as well as ...

The application industries studied in the report include parking sensor systems, ground proximity warning system, anti-aircraft warfare, roller coasters, conveyor systems, vibration monitoring ...

Proximity sensors offer numerous advantages in stamping applications. They are solid state so there are no moving parts to wear out. Sealed devices are impervious to oil, coolant, or other fluids.
