TURCK announces their analog+ proximity sensors have been enhanced to differentiate between varying types of metal during detection—independent of their distance from the sensor. Nov. 25, 2009 ...

Proximity sensors sense the proximity of a conductive object. For many applications, we are particularly interested in sensing human hand/fingers. There are different technologies to implement ...

A device that senses when another object is close by. In a mobile phone, a proximity sensor is most commonly used to detect when the phone is held to the face. Specifically, the sensor detects human ...

One of the backbones to the success of any automated process is the accuracy to which one can detect and measure the various elements involved. Whether the process requires precise measurement and ...

In Part II, we covered basics ofproximity sensor and hardware implementation details of wake-on-approach proximitysensor. In Part III, we will cover different types of proximity sensor hardwaredesigns ...
