[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The ...

Proximity detection adds many smart features to the devices we use.For example, when making a call with a phone held to your ear, face detection using proximity sensing can disable the touchscreen and ...

This is an Arduino-based Proximity Sensor circuit wired using the popular HC-SR04 Ultrasonic ranging module,used here for non-contact object detection purpose. The HC-SR04 module includes ultrasonic ...

Non-contact proximity sensors can improve the ruggedness of manufacturing operations, such as metal component assembly, by replacing delicate mechanical switches. Sensor selection for these ...

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 ...

Time-of-flight (ToF) sensors open up new application areas and use cases for proximity sensing and presence detection technologies, and these sensors can add valuable functionalities and intelligence ...

[Dustin Andrews] built this add-on board which works as a proximity sensor. He wanted a standalone sensor for his Arduino projects which would use a single pin as a trigger. This lets him alert the ...
