The AN9 series from Cherry Switches is a thin, programmable, non-contact magnetic position sensor capable of continuous rotation with dual outputs. It uses the Hall Effect technology with magnetic ...

Capacitive displacement sensor’s touch-free nature makes it ideal for fragile surfaces and high-speed machinery.

The device uses an ASIC and an array of MR sensors to determine the position of a magnet collar attached to a rotating object to identify and control the object's position. Especially in applications ...

This paper describes the design and characterisation of a long-range capacitive displacement sensor, NanoSensor® model NXE2. Special emphasis is placed on the design features and metrological ...

Renesas has invented a non-contact industrial rotary inductive position sensor that works up to 600,000rpm and has a propagation delay less than 2μs. This image is part one of the snippets of ...

With the Speetec, Sick is expanding its product range for speed and length measurement of objects moving in a linear path to include technology that measures directly on the material surface. The ...

As the demand for greater control and functionality increases, position-sensor-instrumented hydraulic cylinders are becoming more important in the heavy industry, mobile equipment, and subsea worlds.

A research team has developed a new soft tactile sensor with skin-comparable characteristics. A robotic gripper with the sensor mounted at the fingertip could accomplish challenging tasks such as ...
