Capacitive sensing and imaging techniques are increasingly being utilized in non-destructive evaluation (NDE) to assess the integrity of materials without causing damage. These methods leverage ...
The working principle of digital calipers is mysterious enough that we’d never think to dismantle, much less improve them, right? Well, think again, as [Limi DIY] retrofits the processing ...
[James Eckert] got his hands on a Freescale MPR121 capacitive touch sensor. The chip in question speaks I2C and senses up to twelve simultaneous capacitive sense electrodes; break-out boards are ...
Using multi-material 3D printing and computational tools, this work demonstrates an approach to generate and fabricate conductive traces within objects to support capacitive touch sensing. Touching ...
Vibration and thermal signatures are crucial toward gaining a deeper understanding of failure modes in process operations and thus are an enabler of a predictive-maintenance ...
