The simple flat surface is also easier to maintain and keep clean. As a result, a variety of medical, industrial, automotive and hospitality industry applications are appearing. One of the newest […]
Formula One Racing Experience Applied to World Class Racing Bike
In addition to all its sophisticated mechanical design for competitive racing, the Factor 001 has dozens of sensors to make over 21 measurements. The measurements indicate the environment, rider’s physical condition and performance. The sensing technologies include accelerometers, pressure, torque, humidity, temperature, position, speed, angular velocity and power sensors. Designed and manufactured by BERU f1systems […]
Ease Temperature Concerns: We’ll Call You
Adding to its USB, and Wi-Fi editions, Temperature@lert Cellular Edition monitors the ambient temperature in a server room or other critical area and alerts the user via email, telephone and text message when the temperature rises or falls outside of an acceptable range. The pre-calibrated digital temperature sensor is accurate to within ±0.5°C with a range […]
Proximity Sensor for Welding Applications
Rather than frequently replacing a sensor in an abusive welding environment, a new inductive proximity sensor can provide increased impact protection. Balluff’s BunkerProx M18 sensor has a thick housing for withstanding mechanical impact in welding applications. A frontal-impact deflection ring protects the face from repeated welding impacts. In addition, the sensor’s ceramic face resists weld spatter […]
Wireless Sensor Checks Temperature Of Your BBQ Meats
The NI Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) platform gave BMF Cooks another tool in the BBQ pit when they went to competition at the 2010 Austin Rodeo. By monitoring the temperature of the various meats as they cooked in addition to providing temperature gradient information inside the pits, NI WSN measurement nodes enabled the cooks to […]
