Machines are moving beyond single-point sensing. Multi-sensor fusion now delivers vision, ranging and inertial data. The ...

Ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) sensors come to rescue indoor sensors, which often fail to detect and avoid barriers like plexiglass walls, translucent doors, and glass windows. Here is how ToF ...

Tesla removed the ultrasonic sensors from the recently-built cars in a move many framed as a cost-cutting measure. Without them, some parking features and distance measurements to obstacles around the ...

InVisage Technologies launched its Spark Micro-LiDAR (SML20) module. The previously announced Spark4K 13-megapixel, 1.1-micron NIR sensor enables the SML20 module to sense structured light patterns ...

Sonair has closed a new funding round, led by Skyfall Ventures, to propel the robotics industry into a new era of sensing technology. The investment introduces a completely new category of sensors ...

Tesla has announced that it's phasing out ultrasonic sensors (USS) used in its EVs to detect short-range obstacles, Electrek has reported. While other automakers use LiDAR, radar and other sensors on ...

Toposens, a manufacturer of safety equipment, announces the launch of a 3D ultrasonic collision avoidance sensor for automotive and industrial vehicles. Called ECHO ONE, the product is based on ...

TDK Corp. has announced full-scale production of its InvenSense SmartSonic ICU-20201 ultrasonic time-of-flight (ToF) sensor. The SmartSonic family of ultrasonic ToF sensors integrate a MEMS ...

Ultrasonic sensors measure the distance between a target and the sensor using high-frequency sound waves that are inaudible to humans. The process is simple: the sensor emits ultrasonic waves, which ...
