Displacement measurement is fundamental to numerous engineering and scientific applications, ranging from precision robotics to industrial automation. Modern techniques integrate advanced imaging, ...

Professor Nobuyuki Matsumoto has led a team of researchers to develop a gravity sensor based on monitoring the displacement of a suspended mirror, which allows for measuring the gravity of the ...

This paper describes the design and characterisation of a long-range capacitive displacement sensor, NanoSensor® model NXE2. Special emphasis is placed on the design features and metrological ...

The brochure on capacitive nanometrology displacement sensors and electronics presents PI’s state-of-the-art systems and also features a tutorial on single plate and dual plate capacitive sensors and ...

• In-vehicle disc brake wear analysis. Capacitec Model HPC-150C-H sensor assembly offers small size (OD 9.5 mm), large range (2.5 mm) and 0.25 micron resolution. Operating at +400 °C, they are used to ...

Howard A. Schaevitz Technologies Inc. Pennsauken, N.J. Engineers continue to increase their use of linear-position and displacement sensors for providing real-time information to feedback-hungry PLCs ...

When reviewing new sensor technology used in the discrete manufacturing industries, we wondered if end users were simply replacing older technologies or strategically using new sensors to gather more ...

It seems like engineering 101, but do you actually remember the specific differences between inductive proximity, inductive displacement, and eddy-current sensors? I asked a few friends and everyone ...

Fringe conference can be traced to the automatic processing of fringe patterns. The term “patterns” evokes an image of flowing lines elegantly wrapped around surface contours. However, automatic ...
