Although ultrasonic sensors have been around for several decades, their popularity in sensing applications continues due to their capability, flexibility and relatively low cost. Products like ...

There is a lot of buzz about electromagnetic (EM) detection and ranging sensor technology, which encompass radar, lidar, infrared (IR), ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB), and many others. However, there are ...

Ultrasonic sensors measure the distance between a target and the sensor using high-frequency sound waves that are inaudible to humans. The process is simple: the sensor emits ultrasonic waves, which ...

A salvaged Tesla Model 3 could detect distances even after the front bumper containing the ultrasonic sensors was taken off. This finding is surprising considering that the car was running the 2022.28 ...

While early scientists and inventors famously underestimated the value of radar, through the lens of history we can see how useful it became. Even though radar uses electromagnetic waves to detect ...

Tesla doubled down on Tesla Vision by removing ultrasonic sensors from its vehicles a month ago. Some functionality was lost, but Tesla intends to offer the same features using the cameras around the ...

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 ...

Inductive sensors are non-contact proximity sensors that detect ferrous targets, ideally ones made of mild steel thicker than one millimeter. They consist of four major components: a ferrite core with ...
