Sometimes we need a non-contact liquid level sensor. There are several ways to build that, but the easiest is to try an optical liquid level sensor. You may already have an idea in mind since you are ...
The University of Hawaii (UH) has released the first image obtained using its new 16-megapixel HAWAII 4RG-15 (H4RG-15) image sensor on the UH 2.2-meter telescope on Mauna Kea. This represents a ...
Oil and gas production and work in confined spaces exposes field personnel to a variety of toxic and explosive gases in everyday drilling, processing, transport, and municipal operations. Explosive ...
Designed to meet the challenging accuracy and reliability requirements of demand controlled ventilation systems (DCVs), the IRCO2 is a CO2 sensor for HVAC applications. CO2 concentrations are an ...
The FR series radar level sensor is designed to monitor the level of liquids and powders. It provides non-contact and stable level monitoring in any environment, regardless of conditions. Additionally ...
L3 Space & Sensors announced today that it has successfully completed acoustic testing on the Space Based Infrared System (SBIRS) Wide Field of View (WFOV) program optical payload built by L3. This ...
In this article, we implement a rain and ice sensor by analyzing the reflection of an infrared (IR) light source. This project uses proven techniques based on multiple reflections of IR light in the ...
I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...
A sensor identifies misfolded protein biomarkers in the blood. This offers a chance to detect Alzheimer's disease before any symptoms occur. Researchers intend to bring it to market maturity. The ...
Some readers may recall building a line-following robot during their school days. Involving some IR LEDs, perhaps a bit of LEGO, and plenty of trial-and-error, it was fun on a tiny scale. Now imagine ...
