In the real world, missile systems use advanced radars, infrared sensors, and other hardware to track and prosecute their targets. [Raspduino Uno] on YouTube has instead used ultrasound for targeting ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

The SM300A ultrasonic proximity sensor measures 33.0 mm x 7.62 mm x 19.05 mm and has a sensing range from 6.35 mm to 102 mm, said to be 12 times farther than similar sized sensors. This 12 to 24 Vdc ...

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 ...

This one is an unusual smart home project, potentially - how to monitor a fish tank’s health with an AI-enabled ultrasonic sensor system. The detailed project is highlighted on Hackser.io and features ...

[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The ...

The Superprox SM300FP senses objects from 6.35 to 102 mm (0.25 to 4.00 in.) without compensating for different materials or colors. Its flat-profile housing measures 33 7.62 19.05 mm (1.3 0.3 0.75 in.

It's winter ... again ... and time for the all-too-common issue of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) proximity-sensor problems, compliments of the seasonal ...

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 ...
