How can picture-like images be obtained from LiDAR?

July 8, 2019 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

At Sensors Expo 2019, Steve Ehrsam, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Innovusion, explains how extensive details can be observed in the Innovusion Cheetah LiDAR system. Providing image-grade or picture-like images from 300 lines of angular resolution, the system can see cars over 270 meters away, detect small objects and even read signage. The […]

How do you get your sensing idea into production?

June 27, 2019 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

If the idea is already in the design phase, you may just be looking for a company that will manufacturer (fabricate or fab) your device. The choice of a fab involves different criteria including, of course, cost.  In addition to the wafer fabrication packaging is also a major consideration. A fab process that allows wafer […]

What types of sensors are used in underwater navigation and exploration? (Part 2 of 2)

May 24, 2019 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

Underwater navigation and exploration require special sensors for object detection and imaging. Part 1 of this blog addressed cameras and sonar. LiDAR is also used for underwater applications. Studying the depths and shapes of underwater terrain or bathymetry can be performed by bathymetric LiDAR. The airborne approach to scanning the seafloor uses a green wavelength […]

What types of sensors are used in underwater navigation and exploration? (Part 1 of 2)

May 22, 2019 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

Unlike land or airborne vehicles that can use radar and cameras to locate and identify objects underwater navigation and exploration present greater challenges. If underwater visibility is good, cameras provide a good source of information. Increasing resolution and the number of cameras are among the improvements that have been made in the recent past to […]

How can system designers integrate sensors quicker?

May 19, 2019 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

To make designing with the sensor easier, best practices and guidelines compiled by the application experts at the sensor manufacturer and other tools can simplify user’s implementation and avoid pitfalls that have been observed in previous system designs. This is certainly true for sensors (transducers) that convert mechanical forces to electrical signals and have mechanical […]

What is chromatography?

March 29, 2019 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

According to “Chromatography Composition Measurement,” in The Measurement, Instrumentation, and Sensors Handbook, chromatography is a technique for separating mixtures into their components. The process involves two phases. The first phase is stationary and provides a large surface area. The second phase is mobile and moves in a fixed direction relative to the stationary phase. Modern […]

What is the difference between an ECG, EEG, EMG and EOG?

March 28, 2019 By Randy Frank Leave a Comment

An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG), electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyogram (EMG) and electrooculogram (EOG) all measure biopotentials, the electrical output of human activity. However, the amplitude and bandwidth of the measurements varies for each of these. The table shows the values for each biopotential group according to the article “Biopotentials and Electrophysiology Measurements” in The Measurement, Instrumentation, […]
