Figure 1a shows a slotted optical switch. An LED is mounted in a plastic housing, facing a phototransistor, but separated by a gap. If something moves into the gap, it blocks the light path between ...

Measurement systems that are able to accommodate evolving application requirements are preferred as growing cost pressures demand long system life and functional flexibility. The most efficient way to ...

Some motion sensors are based on optical measurement technologies to provide accurate velocity and position measurements without requiring physical contact with the object or surface being monitored.

CU Boulder researchers have built high-performing optical microresonators, opening the door for new sensor technologies. At its simplest form, a microresonator is a tiny device that can trap light and ...

Through the acquisition of Canadian company Real Tech, ABB expands its strong presence in the water segment and complements its portfolio with optical sensor technology critical for the age of smart ...

There is a point where taking technology for granted hides some of the incredible capabilities of seemingly simple devices. Optical mice are a great example of this principle, using what are more or ...
