Ultra-wideband proximity sensors enable power-saving interactivity in smart appliances, chargers, smart locks

June 16, 2022 By Lee Teschler

novelda

An upgraded ultra-wideband (UWB) proximity sensor enhances LCD screen lifetime, increases interactivity and gives devices an automated, power-saving mechanism. Its approach detection feature lights the display immediately upon approach and turns it off automatically once a person leaves the detection zone. Through contextual awareness, the device knows your intentions and is ready when you are. […]

Teardown: Inside an industrial absolute encoder

April 26, 2022 By Lee Teschler

If you go to the Wikipedia page on absolute encoders, you’ll find descriptions of these devices mentioning multiple code rings, glass or plastic discs, and configurations of sliding contacts arranged so each contact wipes against a metal disc at a different distance from a turning shaft. Actually, you’d be hard pressed to find any of […]
