Stumbling around YouTube, we found what has to be the lowest-tech method of producing a touchpad to make a capacitive touch keyboard, and we just had to share it with you. If you’re afraid of… ...

News facts: New AS8579 capacitive sensor uses novel technique for fool-proof, hands-on detection design Enables sensing placement within the steering-wheel industry’s first completely reliable ...

Sensor Sense: Capacitive sensors. Aug. 10, 2006. Most proximity sensors use an electromagnetic field to sense the presence of a target metal.

Models with the dynamic capacitive measuring principle detect a hand or finger for actuation; the output signal is actuated for 300 ms. This principle allows the sensor to ignore build-up on the ...

A frequent beginner project involves measuring soil moisture levels by measuring its resistance with a couple of electrodes. These electrodes are available ready-made as PCBs, but suffer badly from… ...
