Imaging technology has transformed how we observe the universe—from mapping distant galaxies with radio telescope arrays to ...

Elliptic Labs has found a way to replace a staple of smartphones — the hardware optical proximity sensor — with an ultrasound software solution. Proximity sensors are a key component that turn off the ...

Sponsored by IDT: Thanks to the advances made in inductive position sensing, the technology is carving new paths in automotive design and leaving its optical and capacitive cousins in the dust.

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.

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 ...

Bertel is a Linux user who likes budget smartphones more than flagships, uses a custom ROM, and gets his apps from F-Droid. When he isn't writing short stories for Android Police, you might find him ...

Elliptic Labs made a bit of a splash a few years ago when it unveiled its gesture-control technology for smartphones. The intriguing tech works through a modified chip that tunes the devices’ speakers ...

The global optical sensor market size was US$ 2,299.4 million in 2021. The global optical sensor market is forecast to grow to US$ 6235.5 million by 2030 by growing at a compound annual growth rate ...

Elliptic Labs has announced their new BEAUTY Ultrasound Proximity software that has the potential to replace proximity sensors on future smartphones. The hardware needed to run the proximity software ...

Inductive sensors are non-contact proximity sensors that detect ferrous targets, ideally ones made of mild steel thicker than one millimeter. They consist of four major components: a ferrite core with ...
