Laser Proximity Sensors use laser beams to detect the presence or absence of objects within a certain range. They are used in security systems, robotics, automation, and industrial processes, where ...

Mounted behind an OLED display, the TMD3719 ALS/proximity/flicker sensor enables OEMs to design smartphones that have no bezel and so maximize screen-to-body ratio Patent-pending innovations provide ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

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 intelligence ...

Understanding acoustic feedback in hearing aids. Power consumption challenges in hearing aids. Functionality integration and its impact on energy consumption. The benefits of using photoreflectors for ...

Today, most modern Android devices are kitted out with a bunch of sensors. You can use this information in lots of different ways – whether it’s monitoring light levels so your application can ...

As things get smaller, we can fit more processing power into devices like robots to allow them to do more things or interact with their environment in new ways. If not, we can at least build them for ...

Smartphones have dozens of hidden sensors that power everyday features. From accelerometers and gyroscopes to proximity and magnetometer sensors, these tiny components help phones detect motion, light ...
