In this video, I'm testing out the VL53L0x Time Of Flight sensor that optically measures distance with some IR laser to see if it will be a good option to use in future versions of my pellet level ...

The main goal of this application is to design an ultrasonic qualitative distance estimation sensor using Dialog Semiconductor’s SLG47105V. The system is designed using high-voltage (HV) macrocells ...

Of course, many different types of distance measuring sensors exist but not all sensors are the same. Each sensor has its own advantages and disadvantages. At its most basic level, a distance ...

[Mike] lives in a temperate rainforest in Alaska (we figured from his website’s name) and uses a 570 gallon oil tank to supply his furnace. Until now, he had no way of knowing how much oil was left in ...

Ultrasonics or ultrasound is a radar-like system that uses ultrasonic signals at frequencies above those typical for human hearing, usually above 16 to 20 kHz. The 40- to 70-kHz range tends to be most ...

In many applications, harsh ambient conditions present a significant challenge for sensor technology. In such cases, ultrasonic sensors that are largely unaffected by physical influences become ...

Sometimes, it’s time to shut down the oscilloscope, and break out the cardboard and paints. If you’re wondering what for, well, here’s a reminder of an Instructable from [CrazyScience], that brings us ...
