Capacitive touch sensors are entirely in the domain of DIY, requiring little more than a carefully-chosen conductive surface and a microcontroller.

The distinctive capacitance peak enables to count the droplets, drip rate (0.4-m/s cross capacitive) with highly precise (0.036%), and drift-free readings. All the sensors can be used for the target ...

A new type of coplanar capacitance sensor was designed to address the problem that coplanar capacitance sensors are difficult to use for measuring and characterizing defects at different depths in ...

A shaft seal ring (WDR) seals the oil-lubricated gearbox against the electric drive motor. As this WDR is installed in an axle housing, a failure would not be recognised. The motor compartment would ...

The demand for intelligent wearable human–machine interaction (HMI) systems is rising with the rapid advancement of flexible sensors and artificial intelligence. However, flexible capacitive sensors ...

Such unique sensitivity of micro- and nano-optomechanical sensors, cavity optomechanical sensors, and the more recent optically levitated sensors makes them promising probes to explore the ...

Designed in partnership with Modern Biology, the device translates biofeedback data from living organisms into evolving ...

The guide on this medical gizmo design walks you through the essentials, from sensing principles to circuit basics.

We implement the neuromorphic radar system through a printed-circuit board (PCB) prototype and carry out simulations for the IC version. Our experiments verify NeuroRadar’s ability to empower resource ...

Its core principle seems simple: it captures microscopic deformations caused ... akin to equipping robots with "eyes on their ...

The sensor works by constantly capturing and releasing sweat, with a sodium sensor which measures the activity of the sweat and a skin temperature sensor.
