The demo uses two Infineon sensors: the digital XENSIV IM69D130 microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) microphone and a DPS310 digital barometric pressure sensor as well as […]
What sensors can be used in an AC system?
At Sensors Expo 2019, Devin Brock, Manager of Product Knowledge and Training for Sensors Solutions at TE Connectivity, explains the numerous opportunities for a variety of sensors in an air conditioning (AC) system. The working table top heating ventilating and AC (HVAC) system from New Product Innovations has wired and wireless sensors from TE Connectivity […]
How can solar provide power to the IoT?
At Sensors Expo 2019, Ben Lanail, Director of Business Development at Alta Devices, explains how his company’s thin-film solar voltaic cells can provide power for a variety of devices and applications, including the Internet of Things (IoT). Made from wide band gap (WBG) gallium arsenide (GaAs), the cells have very good light to electricity conversion […]
How can an RTC feature stabilize an image sensor’s output?
At Sensors Expo 2019 in San Jose, CA, Sahil Choudhary, a product marketing manager at InvenSense, demonstrates how the real-time clock (RTC) feature in his company’s 6-axis (accelerometer and gyroscope) sensors provides accuracy and stabilization for critical imaging applications. For a specific device frequency, say 10 Hz, the RTC input ensures that the 10 Hz […]
What makes a winning sensor?
At Sensor Expo 2019 in San Jose, CA, Travis Taylor, an Associate MTS at Maxim Integrated, demonstrates the Health Sensor Platform 2.0 that won the Sensors Expo 2019 Innovative Product of the Year Award. It can measure electrocardiogram (ECG), optical heart rate and temperature. In addition to its wrist-worn display, the measured information can be […]
How can you achieve a low power sensor node?
At Sensors Expo 2019 in San Jose, CA, Chet Jewan, Vice President of Sales and Business Development at Eta Compute, describes the demos in his booth. The sensor node consists of the Eta Compute ECM3531 application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a ROHM Semiconductor RF device and sensors – all running off of a small solar […]
What’s missing from many smart homes today?
In the home of the future, many different types of sensors will allow the owner and authorized users to activate several functions remotely. To avoid unauthorized users from accessing these systems and even gaining entry into the home, security must be designed in. At Sensors Expo 2019 in San Jose, Steve Hanna from Infineon who […]
What information does a proximal flow sensor provide?
At Sensors Expo 2019 in San Jose, CA, Lucas Tschuor, Head of Field Application Engineering at Sensirion, explains how his company’s proximal flow sensor is used in respiratory applications with the help of a teddy bear. With a very sensitive device, breathing cycles can be detected and help the patient breathe providing an ideal sensor […]
How can you have touchless touch sensing?
At Sensors Expo 2019 in San Jose, CA, Håkan Persson, CEO of Neonode Inc., demonstrates touchless sensing using his company’s vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) technology. Neonode’s zForce® (zero force) patented optical sensing technology uses infrared light, invisible to the human eye to provide a holographic touch screen, essentially making air touchable. The holographic design consists […]
