A guide for engineers balancing performance, reliability, and manufacturability across today’s smart systems By Barry Brents, ...

What’s the difference between a transmitter and a sensor? Nine different types of sensor transmitters. How does each type of transmitter work? What are the components of each transmitter type? Sensors ...

If you’re shopping for a digital camera, sensor size is one of the first things you’ll hear about. Chances are you’ve seen terms like “crop sensor,” “full frame,” and “micro four-thirds” thrown around ...

Application characteristics help specifiers choose the best discrete sensor type. Industrial automation systems depend on sensors to detect what is going on with machinery and products for effective ...

Capacitive sensors are typically cost-effective and deliver low-power performance features aligned with today’s trends for consumer and industrial applications. Capacitive sensors are cost effective ...

The wearable sensor market is growing at an annual compound rate of 17.8%. However, sensors have challenges, particularly in terms of miniaturization and power consumption. Several key parameters are ...

There is a growing trend toward electrification of virtually all systems that can be electrified, and that inevitably calls for generating actionable intelligence of these systems. To achieve the ...

When the world’s first “motorwagen” was introduced in 1885, the notion that a car would one day drive itself was laughable. Today, assisted and autonomous vehicles are the reality of an age where ...

Sensor fusion is becoming increasingly popular and more complex in automotive designs, integrating multiple types of sensors into a single chip or package and intelligently routing data to wherever it ...
