This is a library for the laser particle sensor module PM2005 manufactured by Wuhan Cubic Optoelectronics. The PM2005 module counts airborne particles of different sizes in catagories of 0.3, 2.5, and ...

Stratio, a Korean deep-tech startup founded by three Stanford Ph.D. graduates, is introducing what it claims is the first germanium-based short-wave infrared sensor designed for large-scale commercial ...

Raspberry Pi launched a follow-up to its Camera Module 3 with the Camera Module 3 Sensor Assembly. Now, Raspberry Pi users can put the camera sensors into their own custom form factors. The move ...

The TCRT5000 sensor is an infrared reflective sensor. This library is written to use with a TCRT5000 breakout's analog output and handle a threshold in software. These breakouts have typical two ...

Some readers may recall building a line-following robot during their school days. Involving some IR LEDs, perhaps a bit of LEGO, and plenty of trial-and-error, it was fun on a tiny scale. Now imagine ...

A couple of weeks ago, a rather interesting video was shared on Reddit. A person using an iPhone 16 Pro Max tried to capture the LiDAR laser system mounted atop the Volvo EX90 for object detection and ...

A new way to make large ultrathin infrared sensors that don’t need cryogenic cooling could radically change night vision for the military or even autonomous vehicles. In a study published today in ...

For Part 1, click here. High-speed optical communications applications have some high-level transimpedance-amplifier (TIA) circuit similarities with laser rangefinders (LRFs) and LiDAR. However, there ...

Our increasingly autonomous future is entirely dependent on vehicles being able to sense their environment, and at CES 2025 there were a few new technologies aiming to advance vehicular acuity—both ...

How transimpedance amplifiers are used in fiber-optic communications, laser rangefinders, and LiDAR systems. How avalanche photodiodes enhance TIA performance. Application-specific design and topology ...

The U.S. B-52s took part in a tri-national live fire exercise with British and Norwegian forces in Norway focused on multidomain find, fix, track, and target tactics. The Royal Norwegian Air Force ...
