    An infrared proximity sensor Optical proximity sensor in a 2016 Samsung smartphone.A proximity sensor is a standard feature of most smartphones, disabling the touchscreen when positioned near an ear during phone calls; more recent (late 2019-early 2020) smartphones with OLED displays may have the sensor mounted under the display.

  3. Capacitive sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_sensing

    Many types of sensors use capacitive sensing, including sensors to detect and measure proximity, pressure, position and displacement, force, humidity, fluid level, and acceleration. Human interface devices based on capacitive sensing, such as touchpads, [1] can replace the computer mouse.

  4. Parking sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_sensor

    The sensors emit acoustic pulses, with a control unit measuring the return interval of each reflected signal and calculating object distances. [1] The system in turns warns the driver with acoustic tones, the frequency indicating object distance, with faster tones indicating closer proximity and a continuous tone indicating a minimal pre ...

  5. Inductive sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inductive_sensor

    An inductive sensor is a device that uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to detect or measure objects. An inductor develops a magnetic field when an electric current flows through it; alternatively, a current will flow through a circuit containing an inductor when the magnetic field through it changes.

    Proximity, a science fiction drama film; Proximity fuze, a fuze that detonates an explosive device automatically when the distance to the target becomes smaller than a predetermined value; Proximity sensor, a sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact; Proximity space, or nearness space, in topology

  7. Reed switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed_switch

    The reed is hermetically sealed and can therefore operate in almost any environment, such as where flammable gas is present or where corrosion would affect open switch contacts. A reed switch has very low resistance when closed, typically as low as 0.05 ohms, whereas the Hall effect sensors can be in the hundreds of ohms. A reed switch requires ...
