The Sharp GP2AP03VT00F Time-Of-Flight sensor seems to be a nice part for makers and roboticists, focusing on good short distance sensing where other parts sometimes have problems. Alas, Sharp seems to ...

Imaging technology has transformed how we observe the universe—from mapping distant galaxies with radio telescope arrays to unlocking microscopic details inside living cells. Yet despite decades of ...

Cameras may soon see without lenses, and the change could be as profound as the leap from film to digital. A new imaging technology developed at the University of Connecticut promises to rewrite the ...

Sensor allows faster sensing for print detection in copiers, label printers, or rotational detection in motors and gears Rohm has developed the RPR-0730, analogue compact optical sensor, capable of ...

Designed by Nova Radio Labs in the US, the Novaduino Environmental Sensor Kit is an Arduino-programmable air quality and weather monitoring solution built around the company’s own Novaduino Display ...

TL;DR: Researchers from the University of California developed Mic-E-Mouse, an AI-powered tool that exploits high-DPI optical sensors in gaming mice to eavesdrop on speech by detecting surface ...

Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) simulation tool for Finite Element Method (FEM) models. Features inclusion of temperature dependency and emulation within the program. The user can supply a data file and ...

Abstract: This work aims to demonstrate the capability of a low-cost experimental setup to monitor surface plasmon resonance (SPR) chemical sensors based on plastic optical fibers (POFs) and ...

Researchers have developed a thin optical touch sensor that can simultaneously detect the strength and location of pressure with high sensitivity and stability. The sensor is based on PDMS and is ...
