Miniature photoelectric sensors added to sensor/encoder inventory
AutomationDirect has added ProSense miniature rectangular photoelectric sensors to their inventory of almost 4,000 sensors and encoders. The new ProSense RW mini photoelectric sensors provide an affordable solution for small applications with very limited space. Available in diffuse, diffuse with adjustable background suppression, retroreflective, and through-beam models, their compact light spot provides accurate detection over […]
New Alliance linear position transducers from AutomationDirect
AutomationDirect has added new stainless steel linear variable inductance transducers (LVITs) from Alliance Sensors Group to their growing lineup of linear position sensors. These sensors convert the linear displacement of an object into a proportional analog output of 0 to 10 VDC or 4 to 20mA (depending on model). The compact LZ13 series has a […]
Case Study: Vision-based sports analytics for Europe’s top football clubs
Football is not only the world’s favorite pastime but also a multi-billion-dollar industry. Individual players can command millions of dollars in salaries and transfer fees. With so much at stake, coaches and scouts need to make the most informed personnel choices, then, keep their players on top condition. For the most advanced real-time empirical data, […]
Streaming 4x cameras with small carrier board: Fast Prototype
Embedded vision components are ever-popular and being incorporated into a plethora of applications. What all these applications have in common is the need to pack more functionality into tight spaces. Often, it is advantageous for these systems to make decisions on the edge. To enable such systems, including the ability to prototype quickly, Teledyne FLIR has introduced the […]
NewTek LVDT position sensors serves as long-life replacements for failing potentiometers
NewTek Pre-calibrated Linear Position Sensors serve as long-term replacements for potentiometers (pots) that become unreliable over time due to their contacting operation and effects from vibration and other environmental parameters. As potentiometers rely on mechanical contact to provide position feedback, components wear out and are affected by heat, vibration, and humidity, making output progressively noisier […]
New 36 sensor series from Leuze
The accurate detection of objects requires reliable technology: Leuze has developed the new 36 sensor series exactly with this in mind: Thanks to their perfect detection performance, these sensors are suitable for the demanding requirements in intralogistics, packaging systems, and the automotive industry. They detect objects with different optical properties – even at a great distance, with vibration, […]
