Abstract—Reflective color sensing is typically realized through pho- todiodes with multiple illuminants or photodiodes coated with color filters containing a single illuminant. This paper presents the ...

Here is the circuit of a little label sensor ideal for detecting labels on bottles. The circuit offers a peak sensing distance of 2.5 mm (operating range 0.2 mm to 15 mm) backed up by the proven ...

1300-1650nm light source and photodetector integrated into one package SHIMOTSUKE-SHI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kyoto Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (President and CEO: Yoshihisa Shinya, Headquarters: ...

The reflective properties of plastic make it a notorious offender in this regard. The problem even extends to those objects covered in shrink wrap. Polarizing filters help block false readings from ...

Once you have a track and a kart to race on it, what’s missing? A lap counter that can give your lap times in hardcopy, obviously! That’s what led [the_anykey] to create the Arduino-based Lap Timer to ...

A prior "Sensor Sense" discussed how background suppression sensors are used to distinguish between a nearby target and a wall or other reflective surface at a larger distance. But the same type of ...

Self-driving sensor startup Aeva Technologies, founded by former Apple engineers, said its sensor can detect other vehicles from beyond 500m and pedestrians from a distance of more than 350m. Oppo F17 ...

Everyone is familiar with pinwheels, and few of us haven’t crafted one from a square of paper, a stick, and a pin. Pinwheels are pretty optimized from a design standpoint, and are so cheap and easy to ...
