Capacitive sensor technology has evolved markedly over recent years, underpinned by advancements in integrated circuit design and novel measurement approaches. These sensors function by detecting ...

Non-contact displacement measurements can be made rapidly and with high precision using capacitive sensors over a modest range. The main features are: Capacitive sensing is a non-contact measurement ...

Mobile devices such as tablets and cellphones generally require proximity sensors for Specific Absorption Ratio (SAR) qualification and on-ear detection. Capacitive sensing may be used to meet both of ...

The Apple iPhone brought the benefits of integrated multi-sensor technology to the masses, and while the application of sensors and their associated algorithms has multiplied and changed the world ...

Electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) is an advanced non‐invasive imaging modality used to visualise the internal distribution of materials by measuring variations in capacitance. The technique has ...

Tick tracer. Glow meter. Sniffer. They go by many names, but capacitive voltage sensors are all designed to do one thing: detect the presence of voltage in a wire or piece of equipment without ...

Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...

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 ...

With the introduction of the first smartphones in 2012 with in-cell touch displays, a battle is emerging between the traditional supply chain of ITO-based touch sensors that are externally combined ...
