The MLX90641 is a 16×12 pixel IR array housed in an industry standard 4-lead TO39 package and is able to accurately measure temperatures in the range of -40 °C to +300 °C. The factory-calibrated devices ensure an accuracy of 1 °C in typical measurement conditions. The high accuracy is further supported by a Noise Equivalent […]

Next week, at SPIE BIOS and SPIE Photonics West 2019 in San Francisco, imec, a world-leading research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, presents an on-chip solution for Raman spectroscopy – based on a newly patented concept – providing high optical throughput and high spectral resolution. The solution could pave the way for
Raman-on-a-chip boosts High-Resolution Handheld Spectroscopy Continue Reading
Adafruit has this week announced the availability of its new LTR390 UV Light Sensor and is one of the few low-cost UV sensors available on the market. Offering both ambient light and UVA sensing with a peak spectral response between 300 and 350nm. The sensor is perfect for projects that need to measure how much
Adafruit LTR390 UV Light Sensor now available Continue Reading
Ultrasound ranging is a complicated task that made easy by the readily available module for Arduino. To detect or measure the distance it transmits the signal to the target and target reflects that back. Arduino measure time is taken for complete travel. As the speed of sound is known the distance in between module and

The GYPRO® high performance MEMS gyroscopes product line has been specifically designed for applications that are more demanding than automotive, while not requiring ‘tactical grade’ FOG (Fiber Optic Gyros) or DTG (Dynamically Tuned Gyros). GYPRO® offers high bias stability, low noise and low latency. The closed-loop gyroscopes product family is well suited to precision navigation
In this project, We’ll try to get some information from the human body by using simple sensors and Arduino. You can use this information to create a lie detector machine. At the end of this article, you : Know Polygraph and basics of measuring and recording physiological indicators. Will be familiar with Lie Detector systems.
At this year’s MD&M West trade fair (Anaheim, United States), the sensor expert Sensirion and Quantex Arc Ltd will be presenting an innovative concept study in the field of infusion technology – Quantex’s new wearable drug delivery IoT Platform “Quantex 4C”. Sensirion is a leading manufacturer of environmental as well as gas and liquid flow sensors.
LD20 LIQUID FLOW SENSOR IS PART OF WEARABLE DRUG DELIVERY IOT PLATFORM Continue Reading
Trash bins and managing the waste in them can be messy. And overstuffing them with waste? Even messier. But trash bins that can sense your presence when you approach them to put trash and track how much of it do they hold? Possible, smart, or both? The answer is both! It’s time to go tech-savvy
Automatic Trash Can Using Arduino Based Embedded Platform Continue Reading
Create a pressure sensor using: – Needle-felted wool – Thin muslin – Velostat – Conductive thread This sensor can be used an analog input for Arduino code. Step 1: Prepare the Core Components Component 1: A felted wool ball. This can be made using unwoven wool (I used Leicester wool), a felting needle, and a
