Strictly speaking, a Theremin uses a pair of antennae that act as capacitors in a specific R/C circuit. Looking at [aritrakdebnath2003]’s MIDI THEREMIN, we see it works differently, but it does play ...

You would have probably read about the SONAR that’s used in ships. By taking the same concept into a small form factor we get a distance sensor. This sensor is available in multiple variants and I’ll ...

In recent decades, a quiet revolution has reshaped how we interact with the objects and systems in our daily lives. What once required cranks or rotary mechanisms, and later the press of a button, is ...

Ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) sensors are embedding more powerful on-chip processors with higher computational capability to run a wide range of application algorithms while offloading the system ...

STMicroelectronics has launched its latest FlightSense time-of-flight (ToF) multi-zone sensor for the PC market. The new VL53L5CP ToF sensor delivers user detection, gesture recognition, and intruder ...
