As radar technology continues to advance, it offers an increasingly broad range of capabilities, making it a viable alternative to traditional passive infrared (PIR) sensors. With radar’s enhanced ...

(Passive InfraRed sensor) A device used to detect motion by receiving infrared radiation. When a person walks past the sensor, it detects a rapid change of infrared energy and sends a signal. PIR ...

Force/torque (F/T) sensors are critical components of robot systems used for assembly, test, and other applications. Sensor systems help robots verify part insertion, apply a constant force during ...

Make a safe robot involves sensors to detect problems before they become critical. One reasons robots can interact more closely with people is because of the improvements in sensors. As more robots ...

As one of the most important components in robots, sensors can be categorized into proprioceptive sensors and exteroceptive sensors. Proprioceptive sensors measure internal data such as joint speed, ...

Some robots can swim. Others can kick, fetch, jump or fly. But the latest development in the field of robotics lets machines carry out an activity that is somewhat less athletic: plugging in a USB ...

Industrial robots perform myriad tasks including electronic and mechanical assembly, product testing, and material handling. On-board force/torque (F/T) sensors help robots verify part insertion, hold ...
