In a bout of frustration I recently realized that the roads have all updated — most people have no idea how — and this sometimes hurts the flow of traffic. This realization happened when an ...

Inductive loop detectors were introduced in the early 1960s and have been one of the most widely used sensors for traffic management on freeways, arterials, and intersections. These sensors are used ...

[Trax] was asked by a friend to build a device that could detect the presence of a car in front of his garage gate for it to open automatically. After searching the web for such a project and trying ...

Utilizing their SureCross Wireless Network and their M-GAGE Wireless Sensor Node, Banner Engineering Corp managed to create an efficient and reliable vehicle sensing system. Encapsulated in a rugged, ...

Download this article in PDF format. We’ve been waiting for a long time and now it’s being implemented widely—namely, artificial intelligence (AI). From automatic factories, self-driving cars and ...

In any application using motors for automation, there is a need to ensure accurate control of the motor. To make this possible, the position and speed of the rotor in the motor, which is usually ...

Inductive sensors are non-contact proximity sensors that detect ferrous targets, ideally ones made of mild steel thicker than one millimeter. They consist of four major components: a ferrite core with ...

Q: I read yet another answer of yours about damaged sensors. Some intersections use wire loops buried in the roadway and some use cameras mounted with the traffic lights. Out of curiosity, how do they ...

From roller coasters and farm equipment to discrete and batch manufacturing, inductive sensors enable precise metal detection and automation across every industry. Learn more about their diverse ...

Melexis introduces the MLX90514, a dual-input inductive sensor IC that simultaneously processes signals from two sets of coils to compute differential or vernier angles on-chip. The inductive sensor ...
