Humidity sensors are essential to regulating many indoor and industrial environments. Fang Liu, Jin Hon, and colleagues develop a humidity sensor using graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs ...

What makes this project even more interesting is its applicability. Not only we can measure the speed of moving cars or other objects, but we can also utilize this Arduino based speed sensor in ...

Samsung TVs, speakers, fridges, and AC units will become motion sensors for your SmartThings smart home. Samsung TVs, speakers, fridges, and AC units will become motion sensors for your ...

The F-22 will receive an embedded set of TacIRST sensors as part of the Infrared ... doesn’t allow enough range of motion and minimum visibility to a pilot wearing the JHMCS or the Scorpion.

Philips Hue and other smart bulbs based on the Zigbee standard could soon act as motion sensors without the need for any additional hardware. This would mean they could automatically switch on ...

But you need to buy additional hardware like motion sensors to make this “magic” happen. A new ambient sensing technology called Sensify could make this easier by turning your light bulbs into ...

A smart home is a convenient home. When you have smart devices handling things around the house and automating tasks for you, you barely have to do anything yourself. Your smart coffee maker can ...

Sensors are devices that detect and quantify physical aspects of the world around us. The measurement can either be read directly or converted to a signal for processing by electrical, hydraulic ...

The Connectivity Standards Alliance has shared a video showing how Zigbee devices could be used as occupancy sensors Ambient sensing could let devices like Philips Hue lights sense occupancy in a ...

A demo of Ambient Sensing for Zigbee lights shows how smart lights could soon be used as motion sensors with just a firmware update and no additional hardware. Philips Hue products may soon ...

We don’t yet know whether Hue is looking at Ambient Sensing specifically, but as Hueblog points out, there’s long been chatter that Hue is interested in turning its lights into motion sensors.

In this modern age, IR sensors are typically used in motion detectors and the best VR headsets. In the latter, they measure the depth of a space and your proximity to things in your environment.
