Abstract: In dynamic wireless power transfer systems, long segmented transmitter couplers facilitate simplified control and mitigate voltage fluctuations. However, dynamic capacitive power transfer ...

Capacitive displacement sensors span a wide range of resolution, from the touchscreen sensors which can only detect displacement as a binary state, all the way to the sensors in semiconductor fabs ...

VW faces a new lawsuit over its use of capacitive touch controls. The lawsuit claims that the touch areas on the steering wheel are too easy to activate and have become safety hazards. At least one VW ...

Capacitive touch sensors are entirely in the domain of DIY, requiring little more than a carefully-chosen conductive surface and a microcontroller. This led [John Phillips] to ask why not embed such ...

The capacitor auto-discharge module presented in this article is simply a failsafe module that automatically discharges the buffer/filter capacitor in a power supply circuit when its input supply is ...

From seatbelt laws to new speed limits -- many people soon stop resisting policy changes that restrict their personal freedom once the new rules come into force. Researchers also identified the ...

While capacitance is the primary characteristic of capacitors, the concept of “capacitor resistance” is essential for understanding their real-world performance. Capacitors are fundamental components ...

Article subjects are automatically applied from the ACS Subject Taxonomy and describe the scientific concepts and themes of the article. The RF-EMF batch reactor was successfully designed to provide ...

The Capacitive Touch Sensor (CTS) is a gesture sensitive functional textile touch-pad interface for physical devices. The CTS is produced as a single piece of fabric requiring only two electrodes to ...

The big picture: Japan Display's Zinnsia technology marks a major leap toward more intuitive and ubiquitous human-computer interaction by transforming ordinary objects into smart, responsive surfaces.
