Improvements in Hall Effect Sensors
In addition to its high current sensing products (100A – 3000A) that offer ease of integration, high accuracy and compact size, Raztec has introduced new Hall effect sensors that provide lower current measurements (measuring down in the mA range), different levels of pre-calibration and high-voltage isolation. Designed for operating temperatures from -40 to 125°C, RAZV-2 […]
Get Torque Data Through Bluetooth Connection
With SensorData Technologies’ BT400 Series torque sensor installed into a dynamometer driveline, all it takes is a 2.4 GHz Bluetooth connected device to receive the data. The torque sensor transmits measured data, requires relatively little space for installation, and is capable of measuring torque up to 8000 lb-ft, at speeds up to 15,000 rpm. The […]

Robotics Webinar: The Challenges of Robotic Design
Certainly one of the challenges of robotic design is the choice and number of sensors. For example, ClearPath Robotics’ TurtleBot 2, a lab robot platform, has a 3D vision sensor, bumper sensors, a factory-calibrated gyro, encoders for position and velocity feedback and the Microsoft Kinect sensor as well as user connectors to power more sensors. […]
Dual-axis Tilt Sensor uses MEMS Accelerometer and Gyroscope
What do concrete and asphalt pavers, curb and gutter machines, tiling/trenching machines, pile-driving machines and railroad maintenance applications all have in common? They all have harsh operating environments and they need level sensors. With these and other leveling, angle sensing and tilt applications in mind, Sauer-Danfoss developed the PLUS+1TM-compliant CSS1000 slope sensor. For each axis, […]
