Return to Tech Connection Sensor technology has evolved to the point where there are now many physical single sensors available to measure temperature, pressure, position, location, humidity, moisture, chemical composition, smoke, gas, and many other env
Thermal anemometers use a very fine wire (on the order of several micrometers) or element heated up to some temperature above the ambient. Air flowing past over has a cooling effect. As the electrical resistance of most metals is dependent upon the temperature of the metal (tungsten is a ...
their functions in the study of natural phenomena and laws and production activities are far from enough. To accommodate this situation, sensors are needed. Therefore, it can be said that the sensor is an extension of the human five
ALS (Ambient Light Sensor)is located on the top right corner of the keyboard (shown below). This sensor is responsible for detection the ambient illumination of the PC. If the ambient light becomes dark, the LCD automatically becomes dim and the keyboard backlight is lit. ...
aThe TMP006 is a digital temperature sensor that is optimal for thermal management and thermal protection applications where remote non-contact sensing is desired. The TMP006 is two-wire and SMBus interface compatible, and is specified over the ambient temperature range of –40°C to +125°C....
Context awareness:Ambient intelligence is acutely attuned to the context in which it operates. Through the use of sensors and data collection, it gathers information about the environment, users, and their activities. It understands and adapts to factors such as location, time, temperature, light,...
Sensors are usually named after the physical parameter they measure. The following is a list of sensor types and how they work: Temperature sensorsinclude thermocouples that indicate temperature measuring a change in voltage; infrared sensors that detect emitted infrared energy and infer temperature base...
Why is it called ambient computing? As the definition of the word 'ambient' implies, ambient computing refers to technology that is immersed in your surroundings, ready to help without any prompting. For example, instead of having to turn down the temperature, a smart thermometer...
The ASUS PA27JCV is a 27″ IPS Black monitor with a 60Hz refresh rate, 5K screen resolution (5120×2880, ~217 PPI), Delta E < 2 factory calibration and 99% DCI-P3 wide color gamut coverage. There’s also an ambient light sensor, LuxPixel AGLR (anti-glare, low-reflection) screen co...
This week's AAA release is said to force you to go rogue on your tour of duty. Next you'll be starting your own tentacle cult, which if followed by being kicked out of hell for the second time, an inaccurate history lesson, being blown away by the wind and finally being turned into...
