Capacitive sensing is a contactless-sensing technique with numerous applications, ranging from proximity sensing (Fig. 1), gesture recognition, automotive rain sensors, and remote liquid-level sensing ...

A lab-on-a-chip is basically a very small device that can perform laboratory functions on a very small scale, often at the size of a single chip. They are designed to be portable, cost-effective and ...

Capacitive sensing finds use in all kinds of industrial, automotive, medical, and consumer applications. The popularity of this technology, especially in HID (human interface devices), has grown ...

A novel geometric configuration for capacitance-based sensors is presented to measure void fractions in annular two-phase flow systems. The new design significantly enhances sensitivity, surpassing ...

Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...

Typically, when we think of touch screens, we think of LCDs or OLEDs with a resistive or capacitive sensing layer laid over the top. However, a team from the University of Chicago has developed an ...
