The Forgotten Proximity Sensor
If someone says proximity sensor, what is the first thing that comes to mind? My guess is inductive and justly so because they are the most used sensor in automation today. There are other sensing...

What is a Capacitive Sensor?
Capacitive proximity sensors are non-contact devices that can detect the presence or absence of virtually any object regardless of material. They use the electrical property of capacitance and the...
