[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.

Pushing robots beyond traditional “safe but slow” parameters requires sensing and perception capabilities that can adapt in ...

What can it do? A: Today’s state-of-the-art photoelectric proximity sensors incorporate features that make set-up easy while implementing algorithms that minimize false detection and non-detection.

The Global New Car Assessment Programme (Global NCAP) plays a crucial role in evaluating and rating the safety of cars worldwide. These ratings help consumers make informed decisions when purchasing ...

A recent study published in Micromachines introduces a micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) that leverages near-infrared (NIR) spectral detection for multi-component gas analysis, with a particular ...

That's where crash test results and safety ratings come into the picture. Trusted authorities like the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the National Highway Traffic Safety ...

With the rapid development of technology, automakers are constantly seeking innovations to improve the intelligence and safety of vehicles. Among these innovations, LiDAR sensors for cars play a ...

We propose a method for simultaneous articulated robot posture estimation and environmental mapping by integrating data from proximity sensors distributed over the whole body. Our method extends the ...

The metric, known as Diffuse Axonal Multi-Axis General Evaluation (DAMAGE), has already been used in the National Football League (NFL) for helmet safety assessments and is now being applied to ...

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced its selection of model year 2025 vehicles for testing under the agency’s 5-Star Safety Ratings program, a key part of its New ...
