Over the past decade, the growth of passive components has been driven by smartphones. Faster communication and processing speed require more power consumption for smartphones, and therefore more ...

that can be controlled without the need for additional sensors. "A precise electrical capacitance value can be assigned to each deformation or change in position of the film. The capacitance data ...

that upper layer closes a circuit with another layer beneath it. (Having to press a little to, say, sign your name on a screen is an earmark of resistive touch.) Back to capacitive, though.

Using these electroactive polymer films, the research team is developing novel drive systems (actuators) that can be controlled without the need for additional sensors. "A precise electrical ...

Capacitors with unique construction and failure modes are placed on the AC line to manage EMI modes and ensure user safety.

One example of these pressure sensors is the class of capacitive pressure sensors. Capacitive pressure sensors have a lot of potential for different HMI applications and in challenging handling ...

Researchers create an iontronic artificial skin that senses pressure, temperature, and current while learning patterns ...

Abstract: Capacitive pressure sensors have attracted considerable interest due to their high sensitivity, low energy consumption, and potential for miniaturization, making them suitable for ...

Every soft caress of wind, searing burn and seismic rumble is detected by our skin’s tangle of touch sensors. David Ginty has ...
