This project demonstrates how to use a capacitive touch sensor module with an Arduino Uno. The touch sensor detects touch or proximity, triggering an action in response to the input. Connect the ...

[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 ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

Guest columnist Helen Francis, product marketing manager at Atmel Touch Technology, says that capacitive touch can be used as a proximity sensor In recent years, capacitive touch technology has ...

A simple, beginner-friendly C++ library that brings capacitive touch sensing to the Arduino UNO‑R4 Minima and UNO‑R4 WiFi. It abstracts away all the low‑level CTSU, DTC, and interrupt details so you ...

Two tiny ICs and a few passive components can yield a capacitive proximity sensor with excellent sensitivity and extremely fast response time. The circuit’s operation leverages the pulse-front-edge ...

Abstract: Force and proximity sensors are key in robotics, especially when applied in collaborative robots that interact physically or cognitively with humans in real unstructured environments.
