Sometimes, it’s time to shut down the oscilloscope, and break out the cardboard and paints. If you’re wondering what for, well, here’s a reminder of an Instructable from [CrazyScience], that brings us ...

In many applications, harsh ambient conditions present a significant challenge for sensor technology. In such cases, ultrasonic sensors that are largely unaffected by physical influences become ...

Makers, developers and enthusiasts building distance related projects may be interested to know that the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sonar distance sensor is now available to purchase directly from the ...

There is a lot of buzz about electromagnetic (EM) detection and ranging sensor technology, which encompass radar, lidar, infrared (IR), ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB), and many others. However, there are ...

Valeo has been granted a patent for an ultrasonic sensor designed for vehicle distance detection systems. The sensor can be installed with others, receiving and modulating data signals through supply ...

Chirp Microsystems’ CH-201 MEMS sonar-on-chip time-of-flight (ToF) sensor offers a sensing range of up to 5 meters for room-scale applications. Expanding the SmartSonic MEMS ultrasonic platform, the ...

[Emil] got his hands on a dozen HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors, but wasn’t too happy with their performance. Rather than give up, he reverse engineered the sensor and built an improved version. Hackers, ...
