Capacitive sensing is a contactless-sensing technique with numerous applications, ranging from proximity sensing (Fig. 1), gesture recognition, automotive rain sensors, and remote liquid-level ...

Macroscopically, capacitive sensors are usually analyzed by converting their capacitance into another physical variable, such as voltage, time, or frequency. Microscopically, capacitive sensors have ...

Capacitive proximity sensor block diagram Capacitive proximity sensors use two metal electrodes or plates to generate a high-frequency electrostatic field.

EBE sensors + motion presents the new TCRC sensors, a groundbreaking solution for capacitive touch sensors that function ...

Many pieces of heavy equipment need inclination sensors to keep operators and the machine safe from falling over. Should those sensors be capacitive or thermal based devices?

The working principle behind the projected capacitive sensors In a projected capacitive sensor, Tx is excited with a charging voltage while Rx is held at the virtual ground, and the charges induced on ...

Reading this sensor with a microcontroller is extremely similar to a capacitive touch sensor made out of copper and FR4.

The superior capacitive sensors can't go under your screen yet, and ultrasonic technology is still relatively new and expensive. Thus the optical scanner saw a resurgence in popularity.
