I recently met Dr. Dave Horsley, CTO and co-founder of Chirp Microsystems. This is a company that was created in 2013 after incubating with Skydeck at Berkeley and the government-based SBIR program.
LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TDK Corporation (TSE: 6762) announces the immediate availability to select OEMs of the Chirp CH-201 MEMS-based ultrasonic Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor with extended sensing ...
If you need to measure a distance, it is tempting to reach for the ubiquitous ultrasonic module like an HC-SR04. These work well, and they are reasonably easy to use. However, they aren’t without ...
Every robotics project out there, it seems, needs a way to detect if it’s smashing into a wall repeatedly, acting like the brainless automaton it actually is. The Roomba has wall sensors, just about ...
SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TDK Corporation’s (TSE:6762) announces the immediate worldwide availability of the Chirp CH-101 MEMS-based ultrasonic Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor. This ToF sensor ...
Chirp Microsystems is developing a line of ultralow power ultrasonic sensors based on piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducers (PMUTs). Relative to optical sensors, these ultrasonic sensors ...
CMOS image sensors have become a cornerstone of modern imaging, leveraging the advantages of low power consumption, high speed, and scalability inherent in complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor ...
An evaluation kit from TDK showcases its USSM1.0 PLUS-FS ultrasonic sensor module for designs requiring obstacle detection and distance measurement. The sensor operates in harsh industrial ...
