3D sensing technology is rapidly being adopted in a variety of growing markets. End-product applications include smartphones, tablets, augmented/virtual reality products, robot vacuum cleaners, ...

3D scanning is important because the ability to digitize awkward or troublesome shapes from the real world can really hit the spot. One can reconstruct objects by drawing them up in CAD, but when ...

Polarization imaging and 3D reconstruction techniques have emerged as key methodologies for extracting detailed geometric and material properties from visual data. By utilising the polarisation state ...

Sensor technology specialist SICK has launched the W12NextGen range of photoelectric sensors, designed to deliver enhanced detection performance in challenging industrial environments. The new series ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Light sensors detect the presence or absence of light, and the intensity of that light. These sensors then convert light energy into an electrical ...

An overwhelming majority of handheld devices these days have ambient light sensors built into them. A large percentage of TVs and monitors do, too, and that proportion is growing. The sensors allow ...
