At Sensor Expo 2019, Edoardo Gallizio from product marketing for MEMS & Sensors in the Americas at STMicroelectronics explains a voice recognition demo using sensor fusion that was development in conjunction with partner bdSound. The system is a reference design that uses ST’s MP23DB01HP digital microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) microphone and the LIS25BA audio accelerometer to […]
What do you get when you combine 3D scanning and computed tomography (CT)?
If you are in the field of analyzing ancient Egyptian mummies, something really cool and informative. In the Sherit mummy project, researchers benefited from adding the results from a 3D scanner to a CT scan. Sherit is a mummified Egyptian child who died 2,000 years ago. Even though the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum in San Jose, […]
What is the MIPI I3C sensor interface?
The MIPI Alliance, an international organization that develops interface specifications for mobile and mobile-influenced industries, initially released its MIPI I3C specification to its member community in January 2017. In December 2017, the Alliance announced open access to the sensor interface specification. Developed for connecting sensors to an application processor, the MIPI I3C bus interface is a core […]

Alliance Sensors Group a div of H.G. Schaevitz LLC has expanded its sensor product offering by adding to its line the LRL-27 Series of long-stroke LVIT position sensors. These are contactless devices designed for factory automation systems and a variety of heavy duty industrial or commercial applications such as solar cell positioners, wind turbine prop […]
Smart sensor technology: What is it?
“Smart” is frequently used as a prefix to mean new and improved for technology and even consumer type products. The term “smart sensor” has been used for over three decades (Giachino, J. M., “Smart Sensors,” Sensors and Actuators, Vol 10, 1986). Earning the smart prefix, meant the sensor performed a function that could not be […]
Partnering for Best-in-Class Sensing Solutions
With today’s sensors / systems complexity, it is difficult for one company to have all the expertise to execute a complete design, especially one that’s best-in-class. To overcome the limitations, Balluff Inc. partnered with InformaTrac, Inc. Together, the two companies can provide a complete RFID and Asset Management Solution. For partnership solutions, InformaTrac contributes its […]
