The circuit was specially designed for shop windows animation as it makes use of a capacitive sensor that is triggered by touch control system. BC337 – a small signal NPN Silicon AF medium power ...

Touch sensors have been around for years, but recent advances in mixed signal programmable devices are making capacitance-based touch sensors a practical and value-added alternative to mechanical ...

Capacitive sensor interfaces are critical to the accurate measurement of physical parameters such as pressure, humidity, and force across a broad range of applications including biomedical devices, ...

Capacitive sensor technology has evolved markedly over recent years, underpinned by advancements in integrated circuit design and novel measurement approaches. These sensors function by detecting ...

Year on year, microcontrollers and development platforms are shipping with ever-increasing feature sets. In the distant past, if you wanted an analog to digital converter or a PWM driver, you had to ...

The pen is mightier than the sword, but the IBM Model M keyboard, properly applied, can knock teeth in. There are a few more IBM keyboards even better suited to blunt force trauma – the extremely ...

Designing interactive devices is a challenging task that requires careful mechanical design and wiring to integrate electronics. Using multi-material 3D printing and computational tools, this work ...

What makes Topre Realforce keyboards special are the electrostatic capacitive switches. The ‘mechanical’ term is not quite applicable to a Topre switch, since it uses a mat of rubber domes and no ...

In a recent study published in the journal Nature Communications, researchers developed a wireless theranostic contact lens (WTCL) sensor for sensing intraocular pressure (IOP) in situ and delivering ...
