With increased automation of complex production systems, components that are capable of acquiring and transmitting information regarding the production process become necessary. Proximity sensors -- ...

Aimed at industrial, medical, and commercial applications, the OPB720 is less expensive than traditional proximity sensors. The under-$35 plastic-packaged LED-photodetector measures 27.9 x17.3 x 8.4 ...

Proximity sensors detect objects without physical contact. Most proximity sensors emit an electromagnetic field or beam and look for changes in the field. The object being sensed is called a target.

Most design engineers of consumer and industrial products always look for various ways to achieve their desired goals in applications ranging from wearables to handheld devices to industrial ...
