Ultrasonic sensing part 1: static presence
Ultrasonic energy is widely used to sense the presence of nearby objects and even determine their distance if needed, as well as to measure fluid flow rates in industrial and scientific applications. The advantages of ultrasound are that it is relatively easy to apply, is accurate, has very minimal safety or risk factors, carries no […]
Radar sensor achieves 20 meter detection range for IoT applications
Infineon Technologies AG has launched its XENSIV BGT60CUTR13AIP, a 60 GHz CMOS radar sensor designed for low-power IoT applications. The sensor targets smart home and IoT devices and includes Infineon hardware and software support, third-party modules, and transferable FCC certification. The XENSIV 60 GHz CMOS radar family incorporates on-chip processing through a hardware accelerator that […]
Have you got mail?
Since 1989, America Online’s (AOL’s) phrase “You’ve got mail” has been associated with the arrival of digital messages. More recently, the United States Postal Service (USPS) has provided a digital message (email) to alert customers of the arrival of physical mail and packages. The email notifications are part of the USPS Informed Delivery system and […]
Transceivers allow changes to systems’ sensor functions by simple register settings
THine Electronics, Inc. releases its new serial transceiver products, THCS253 and THCS254, that enable systems with many peripheral sensors to simplify cabling for the sensor and control functions. These products enable reductions of system cost, size, and weight, and provide future options to add new sensors with minimal design efforts. THCS253 and THCS254 are […]
