Capacitive sensors work by detecting the change of capacitance introduced by the finger touching near the electrode. Such change is so small that detecting it unambiguously is challenging, and has ...

If you have a project in mind that requires some sort of gesture input or precise movements, it might become a nettlesome problem to tackle. Fear this obstacle no longer: a team from the Wyss ...

Apple is examining a shift from a force sensor in AirPods to a capacitive touch system to make a set easier to control, and provide new options. The latest in Apple's surprisingly long history of ...

Telecom Lead America: ON Semiconductor has unveiled new capacitance-to-digital converter IC called LC717A00AR. ON has priced LC717A00AR at $1.50 and is available in quantities of 2,000. The new IC is ...

Imagine a bulletproof iPod. It’s possible with new touch sensors that use resonant sound instead of capacitance. • Trapped acoustic resonance is most simply described with an analogy: the ringing of a ...

August 2, 2007 Alps Electric has completed development of the industry’s smallest (4.8mm long x 4.8mm wide x 1.8 mm high) capacitance type pressure sensor to detect absolute pressure. The sensor can ...
