Just about every “getting started with microcontrollers” kit, Arduino or otherwise, includes an ultrasonic distance sensor module. Given the power of microcontrollers these days, it was only a matter ...

Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

The underlying mechanism improving piezoelectricity via interfacial polarization is elucidated through combining the experimental results, molecular dynamics simulations and density functional theory ...

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 ...

More efficient, smaller, and lighter traction inverters for EVs can be created by integrating current sensors directly into SiC-based power modules. Silicon Austria Labs (SAL), a power semiconductor ...

The high-sensitivity image sensor modules are versatile. Imaging applications include real- time non-destructive inspection techniques such as food screening, plastic sorting, semiconductor inspection ...

Abstract: In this letter, a novel soft origami module is proposed to detect multi-directional bending. The module is inspired by the deformability and adaptability of the piezoelectric sensor and ...

Fine tuning sensors on prosthetics includes incorporating the sense of touch into a device to be as close to the sensations felt by a natural limb as can be. The two began working together last ...
