Of course, many different types of distance measuring sensors exist but not all sensors are the same. Each sensor has its own advantages and disadvantages. At its most basic level, a distance ...

Proximity sensing based on infrared signal acquisition and processing typically requires two parts to form the optical front end: an infrared LED and an optical sensor. The infrared LED beams infrared ...

Maxim Integrated Products announces four, new digital optical sensors that advance analog integration with sensor fusion. Maxim Integrated Products announces four, new digital optical sensors that ...

Vishay’s VCNL4100 is an IR proximity sensor that works up to 1m, and includes an ambient light sensor. Inside, it combines an infra-red (940nm) emitter, photo detectors for proximity and ambient light ...

Maxim Integrated Products Inc. introduces the MAX44000, a digital ambient-light and infrared proximity sensor that detects light like a human eye. Maxim Integrated Products Inc. introduces the ...

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 ...

New TCS3701 enables front-facing ambient light and proximity sensing measurements in smartphones – maximizing edge-to-edge display screen size – with sensor operation under OLED display PREMSTAETTEN, ...

The monitoring of rotation can involve such sensor types as proximity, photoelectric, resolvers, encoders, and tachometer generators. Most determine direction of rotation, speed, and angular position ...

An Apple patent application published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on Thursday describes a system that may one day replace the infrared proximity sensors deployed in current iPhones with ...

If it's just a sensor, why would it be important? That's a good question, but with proximity sensors being used so heavily in smartphones these days, and that iPhone proximity problem that caused so ...
