In the past, capacitive sensors for automotive electronics were rarely used, as they were deemed to be hard to control, difficult to read out, sensitive to aging, and temperature dependent. On the ...

Capacitive sensors supply high accuracy at a relatively low cost. But system designers attempting to use them have been forced to first convert the capacitance to a voltage, then convert the voltage ...

Depending upon the distance between the surface of a capacitance probe and a target source, the electrical capacitance that is formed between these two objects will vary. In an effort to improve ...

From synchrotron light sources to long-term space missions, nanopositioning specialist Queensgate is eyeing niche markets and extreme operating conditions for its NC series of nanosensors Tough enough ...

The review briefly introduces the principle, material selection criteria, and development of the thermal drawing process. Based on different stimuli, the review comprehensively summarizes the latest ...

Capacitive touch-sensing user interfaces are replacing mechanical buttons in products across consumer, medical and industrial segments. However, with the advent of touch-sensing user interfaces, ...

Sensor manufacturer Micro-Epsilon UK has just launched a new range of non-contact, wear-free capacitive displacement measurement sensors, which offer extremely high performance (resolution and speed), ...
