Proximity sensors enable the programs responsible for overseeing certain processes to calibrate and re-calibrate in situ, keeping can distances within tolerance and allowing feed machines to operate ...

The sensor ignores wood and plastic, but an approaching hand is easily detected. The sensor also detects liquid water with similar ease, either in the form of pooled liquid, or filled bottles.

The sensor shown here is essentially two plates mounted side-by-side, attached to an Arduino Nano using the Capacitor library which uses just two pins, one digital and one analog.

The IR Detector proximity sensor has launched via Kickstarter and is now available to back from just $5 with worldwide delivery expected to take place during February 2019.

Two tiny ICs and a few passive components can yield a capacitive proximity sensor with excellent sensitivity and extremely fast response time. The circuit’s operation leverages the pulse-front ...

In a smartphone, a proximity sensor is located by the phone speaker. It turns off the touch detection during a phone call; otherwise a person's ear would activate functions when pressed against ...

Starting with Firefox 60 —expected to be released in May 2018— websites won't be able to use Firefox to access data from sensors that provide proximity distances and ambient light information.

According to a new tweet by Apple industry analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the proximity sensor on the ‌iPhone 15‌ series will be integrated inside the ‌Dynamic Island‌ area, instead of sitting ...
