In the schematic, you can also find an LM358 Op-Amp which is doing all the comparison work and generating the output. Other than that, there is a potentiometer that can be used to adjust the ...
The microcontroller-based concept was chosen because I wanted to scale the sensor system later to suit other applications. Here is the diagram of my Arduino infrared close proximity sensor. As you can ...
The TMD2771 is a high sensitivity ambient light sensor (ALS) and proximity detector. The ALS has a dynamic range of up to 1,000,000:1, and is highly sensitive allowing it to work well in diverse ...
Capacitive proximity sensors allow sensing of metal and non-metal objects through insulating materials such as wood or plastic and are often used to sense fill levels of liquids or powders. New lower ...
This project uses the Maxbotix Ultrasonic Rangefinder as the main component in a "close enough" parking sensor. Because people don't always park the same distance away from an object as others, the ...
