Advances in sensor technology help make autonomous vehicles safe and reliable. RALF BORNEFELD | Infineon Technologies Many drivers on today’s roads are already supported by advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) for functions such as parking assist, cruise control and automated lighting. Now, more intelligent and connected environmental sensors are making autonomous vehicles the next logical step […]
Face recognition modules get 10X speed boost
The Human Vision Components (HVC)-P2 module has a maximum recognition speed 10 times that of the previous model, which was introduced in March 2014. The HVC-P2 is offered in long-distance and wide-angle detection types and can be utilized in varying environments including homes, outdoors, and the workplace. The modules include a choice of wide-angle type […]
Low-pressure sensors go down to ±1-in. H2O range
New low-pressure sensors, called the BLC Series, work over pressure ranges of ±1 in. H2O through ±30 in. H2O and 15 PSIA. The BLC Series basic low-pressure compact sensor is based on All Sensors’ CoBeam2 Technology. The devices provide a high output signal at a low operating voltage maintaining comparable output levels to traditional equivalent basic sensing elements. […]
High-res pressure sensor measures over 0.5 to 60-in. H2O range
A new low-pressure sensor called the DLHR Series works over lower pressure ranges of 0.5 to 60 in. H2O, an improvement over previous devices. Developed by All Sensors Corp., the DLHR Series is said to provide higher resolution than any other fully compensated low-pressure sensor currently available on the market. All error compensation takes place […]
