Robots that work alongside humans need two different sensing abilities. They must detect people approaching from a distance to avoid collisions, and they must also sense extremely light touch when ...

This README documents how to open, build, and run the project from CLion (recommended workflow), lists IDE recommendations and versions, explains the code layout, libraries / dependencies, components ...

Lexus has an interesting steering wheel button setup where there are two thumbpads on the spokes, unlabeled, that can be shifted between functions (like the shift key on your computer, not shifting ...

The patent is dubbed “Electronic Device With An Under-Display Sensor.” Fingerprint sensing and matching is widely used as a reliable technique for personal identification or verification. Apple says ...

An Arduino library for the Hi-Link HLK-LD2450 24Ghz FMCW radar sensor. This sensor is a Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave radar, which makes it good for presence detection and has some interesting ...

Researchers have developed a flexible optical touch sensor that can simultaneously detect the strength and location of pressure with high sensitivity and stability. The advance in tactile sensing ...

Capacitive touch sensors are entirely in the domain of DIY, requiring little more than a carefully-chosen conductive surface and a microcontroller. This led [John Phillips] to ask why not embed such ...

Robots have become remarkably advanced, capable of executing complex tasks with impressive accuracy, speed, and coordination. Yet, despite these leaps, they often struggle with something fundamental ...

Raspberry Pi launched a follow-up to its Camera Module 3 with the Camera Module 3 Sensor Assembly. Now, Raspberry Pi users can put the camera sensors into their own custom form factors. The move ...

[CNLohr] has been tinkering with some fun parts of late. He’d found out that ordinary LCD screens could be used as simple touch sensors, and he had to try it for himself. He ended up building a little ...
