1300-1650nm light source and photodetector integrated into one package SHIMOTSUKE-SHI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kyoto Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (President and CEO: Yoshihisa Shinya, Headquarters: ...

The reflective properties of plastic make it a notorious offender in this regard. The problem even extends to those objects covered in shrink wrap. Polarizing filters help block false readings from ...

Here is the circuit of a little label sensor ideal for detecting labels on bottles. The circuit offers a peak sensing distance of 2.5 mm (operating range 0.2 mm to 15 mm) backed up by the proven ...

Proximity sensors are common enough in automation projects that we hardly give them a second thought — pick something with specs that match the job and move on. But they can be fussy to get adjusted ...

An 880-nm AlGaAs infrared emitter (IRED) and a NPN open-collector photo device (photo-IC) are mounted on a custom, four-leaded TO-72 header to make up the CL1700 Reflective Object Sensor. The IRED ...

Abstract—Reflective color sensing is typically realized through pho- todiodes with multiple illuminants or photodiodes coated with color filters containing a single illuminant. This paper presents the ...

Manufacturers are adopting automated optical inspection (AOI) systems based on phase shift profilometry (PSP) for applications in advanced packaging processes. Many of these processes use front ...

The CLI700 reflective object sensor consists of an 880-nm aluminum-gallium-arsenide (AlGaAs) infrared emitter and an npn, buffered, open-collector IC. Both are mounted on a custom, four-leaded TO-72 ...

Hamamatsu Photonics has recently developed a new reflective sensor named P13567-02CT. The sensor is designed to work with near-infrared/proximity types and is packaged in a compact size. It contains ...

Once you have a track and a kart to race on it, what’s missing? A lap counter that can give your lap times in hardcopy, obviously! That’s what led [the_anykey] to create the Arduino-based Lap Timer to ...
