Grace Musoki, another student participant, called on the government to ensure access to equipment and funding to help ...

Each sensor includes a light emitter and a receiver, with most relying on infrared light. In optical proximity sensing, the emitter and receiver are housed in the same unit. An infrared reflectance ...

A Raspberry Pi Pico combined with a BME280 sensor can create a small Pico Altimeter that measures data like elevation and air pressure.

As I've experimented and played with a lot of different sensors, I've discovered that these basic devices can be built for super cheap, and they're incredibly versatile. When you're done using an ...

This paper presents a close range proximity sensor based on a 160-GHz radar MMIC with a transition to two flexible dielectric waveguides. On the low-loss waveguides, leaky-wave antennas with a large ...

Library and Hookup Guide Arduino Library - Library for reading proximity, ambient light, and IR values. Hookup Guide - Hookup guide for getting started with the SparkFun VCNL4040 Proximity Sensor.

Gesture-based home automation allows users to control household devices through simple hand movements, removing the need for switches or remotes. It improves convenience, accessibility, and hygiene ...

In this paper, the authors developed a capacitive-based sensor technology for high-range proximity detection, composed of multiple active units. The single sensor unit consists of a multi-layer ...
