[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 ...

Ever wondered why your phone's display turns off when you're on a call or bring it close to your face? That's the proximity sensor detecting if you are using the earpiece to talk, thus turning off the ...

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are microscopic devices comprised of electronics and mechanical parts. Many recent sensor designs leverage MEMS technology for their high precision and ...

The image sensor is arguably the most important component in a digital video or still camera. But these sensors are also notoriously non-standardized. They tend to differ in the schemes used for: ...
