Electronic Specifier takes a look at the top sensor products to have been released in March 2023.

New Nerian Ruby 3D depth camera for demanding applications

Allied Vision’s TKH Vision sister company Nerian Vision has released a new 3D depth camera that combines 3D stereo camera and image processing system in one device.

The Nerian Ruby 3D depth camera is one of the most flexible 3D vision solutions at a very affordable price and a multi-talent for 3D depth perception. (Read more.)

 NewTek tailors LVDT position sensors for energy sector

The energy sector uses NewTek LVDT Position Sensors as metrology tools in ensuring the proper operation of different power systems.

For example, position sensors monitor gas turbine servo controls, fuel valve position, and micro fuel valve openings in the operation of gas turbines.

To reliably perform in these critical applications, NewTek often customises its LVDT displacement sensors to meet customer’s sometimes non-standard operating parameters. By tailoring sensors to operate within specific specifications, customers do not need to conduct expensive design reviews of standard position sensors or worry about meeting safety regulations and codes.

Ballet dancers in sensor suits

Audio guides, maps, traditional and interactive texts help people attending art exhibitions to understand the works in front of them. With dance, however, the audience’s understanding is usually taken for granted.

It’s assumed they will make sense of a performance thanks to the synopsis included in programmes, or reviews published in newspapers and magazines. These supporting materials are optional and do not work during performance.

However, the English National Ballet (ENB), for example, has produced versions of classical ballets for young audiences where dancers perform a shortened version of a well-known classical ballet while a narrator recites the story. (Read more.)

Using radar to predict Alzheimer’s disease and falls

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have developed a method for predicting falls and cognitive illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease by reading a person’s walking pattern with the aid of a radar sensor.

The small sensor can be attached to furniture, walls, and ceilings, both in the home and in a healthcare setting. (Read more.)

FRAMOS announces release of FSM-IMX570 devkit

FRAMOS announced the launch of a new development kit for vision system engineers who are working to develop Time-of-Flight devices for industrial and robotics applications.

The FSM-IMX570 Devkit provides vision system engineers with a simple, coherent framework for quickly developing a working prototype of an embedded indirect Time-of-Flight (iToF) embedded vision system based on Sony's leading iToF technology. The development kit is built around Sony’s IMX570 iToF image sensor, and includes the necessary hardware modules, software drivers, and documentation to allow engineers to integrate the system with widely-used platforms like NVIDIA’s Jetson embedded computers and create a working camera prototype within a few hours.
