For years, ultrasonic sensors have been used in a wide range of applications including fish finders, parking sensors in cars and burglar alarms. In this article, we describe the characteristics of ...

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 have become commonplace thanks in considerable measure to adoption in early-stage autonomous driving vehicles. Ultrasonic technology uses mostly inaudible sound waves (starting at ...

In many applications, harsh ambient conditions present a significant challenge for sensor technology. In such cases, ultrasonic sensors that are largely unaffected by physical influences become ...

Ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) sensors are embedding more powerful on-chip processors with higher computational capability to run a wide range of application algorithms while offloading the system ...

Consider scrapyards: These dirty outdoor environments are filled with objects of every shape, size, and material. Controls on machinery that manipulate scrap need sensors to detect when conveyor belts ...

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 ...
