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 ...

This paper describes the design and characterisation of a long-range capacitive displacement sensor, NanoSensor® model NXE2. Special emphasis is placed on the design features and metrological ...

When applied to pharmaceuticals, the term “off-label” suggests the (frequently discovered) practical and beneficial uses for a drug that are different from the one it was originally developed for.

Capacitive sensors supply high accuracy at a relatively low cost. But system designers attempting to use them have been forced to first convert the capacitance to a voltage, then convert the voltage ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Capacitive sensors are common in today’s consumer electronics, since they are used in many touchscreen applications. Most of the ...

Capacitive sensing provides a robust alternative to traditional mechanical switches. However, some applications cannot accommodate the physical implementation of a printed circuit board directly under ...

Waymo has been granted a patent for an apparatus that includes a lens assembly, image sensor, actuator, and capacitive position sensor to adjust the position of the image sensor along the optical axis ...

A sensor is a very crucial part of any measurement gear. It gathers information from the physical parameters and environment and gives an electrical input to the structures. Among the broad range of ...

The NPS-XY-100A is a piezo scanned flexure guided nanopositioning stage with integrated capacitance position sensors. It is made of Super Invar and is capable of sub-nanometer resolution and ...

NEWARK, DEL, Feb. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The global capacitive sensor market is poised for significant expansion, with sales projected to rise at a steady compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6 ...
