Abstract—Reflective color sensing is typically realized through pho- todiodes with multiple illuminants or photodiodes coated with color filters containing a single illuminant. This paper presents the ...

With the recent application of nano-photonic interference filter technology, XYZ color sensing is moving out of the realm of laboratory instrument into more mainstream applications, including in-situ ...

When you need to quantify the color of an object, you’ve got quite a few options. You can throw a Raspberry Pi camera and OpenCV at the problem and approach it through software, or you can buy an ...

Pokayoke is a lean manufacturing technique by which mistake-proofing devices are used to keep errors from turning into defects. Tom Rosenberg, industry manager at sensor manufacturer Balluff Inc., in ...

The TMD3782 color sensor delivers ambient light intensity (lux) and color measurement, giving mobile devices (e.g., smartphones, tablets) the ability to automatically adjust display color and ...

Suited for use in sorting or matching reflective surfaces by color, the small-footprint (1.08 x 0.843 x 0.355-in.) OPB780 reflective color sensing assembly uses an 8 x 8 photodiode array to provide ...

Photoelectric sensors with background suppression are a more evolved version of the basic diffuse sensors used on public washroom sinks to control automatic faucets. Both in this rudimentary ...

My husband and I recently bought a house built just after World War II with rooms stuck in nearly every decade since. I couldn't wait to get my hands on it and make it our own. However, picking the ...

Robotics researchers have already made great strides in developing sensors that can perceive changes in position, pressure, and temperature – all of which are important for technologies like wearable ...
