[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The … ...

The proximity sensor utilizes miniature hall effect technology in an IC package mounted directly on the actuator. The hall effect is an ideal technology with a virtually unlimited on-off cycle life ...

GM crossovers and SUVs are gradually switching over to use of the AutoSense proximity sensor technology to operate the rear liftgate, replacing motion sensors.

TI’s integrated circuits and reference designs help you create humanoid robot sensor modules and interfacing for radar, LIDAR, ultrasonic proximity or cameras.
