Air Flow Sensors

(260 companies)
Air velocity flow sensors measure air velocity or volume flow using insertion probes or capture hoods.

Vacuum Sensors

(121 companies)
Vacuum sensors are devices for measuring vacuum or sub-atmospheric pressures.

Piezoelectric Sensors

(55 companies)
Piezoelectric sensors measure the electrical potential caused by applying mechanical force to a piezoelectric material. They are used in a variety of pressure-sensing applications.

UV Sensors

(66 companies)
UV sensors are designed to measure the power or intensity of incident ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

Color Sensors

(94 companies)
Color sensors register items by contrast, true color, or translucent index. True color sensors are based on one of the color models, most commonly the RGB model (red, green, blue).

Current Sensors

(306 companies)
Current sensors measure AC and/or DC current levels. They receive current inputs and provide outputs as analog voltage signals, analog current levels, switches, or audible signals.
Electrical capacitance sensors detect and measure capacitance, the charge storage capacity of an electronic component.
Magnetostrictive position sensors are non-contact linear position sensors that use the momentary interaction of two magnetic fields to produce a strain pulse that moves along a waveguide. One field is from a magnet that moves along the outside of the waveguide. The other field is from the waveguide itself.
Tactile pressure sensors are used to detect the pressure distribution between a sensor and a target.

Biometric Sensor Chips

(19 companies)
Biometric sensors are semiconductors with embedded algorithms that are used in security systems or environments for user authentication.

Touch Screen Sensors

(99 companies)
Touch screen sensors are composed of a transparent touch surface surrounded by a sensor array that provides positional information to a processor.

Collision Sensors

(17 companies)
Collision sensors are used to protect robots from colliding with other objects. Noncontact sensors are used to help robots avoid these collisions.

Safety Sensor Switches

(102 companies)
Safety sensor switches are placed in enclosures to prevent accidental contact with live electrical connections.
Electrical inductance sensors measure the inductance of an electrical component or system.

Leaf Wetness Sensors

(10 companies)
Leaf wetness sensors are used to detect the presence of surface moisture.
