Light-emitting diodes -- LEDs -- can do way more than illuminate your living room. These light sources are useful microelectronics too. Smartphones, for example, can use an LED proximity sensor to ...
You might not think that touchless controls–those “manipulated” by a series of gestures or movements–fit in anything but niche markets. But you'd be wrong. Although first used in high-end consumer ...
For color sensing in closed environments with no IR light sources, the TCS3x71 Series applications include closed-loop color temperature feedback control in solid-state lighting (SSL) and LED RGB ...
Sensor manufacturer Ams launched this week a new in-display ambient light and proximity sensor solution for smartphones equipped with OLED displays which essentially makes those modules invisible.
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 ...
[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 ...
LEDs are used in all manner of projects and devices from living room lights to microelectronics. One example in a common device is the use of an LED proximity sensor in many smartphones. That sensor ...
