The solution enables new capabilities of low power and small form factor smart sensing for various applications, for example, face detect and identification, human pose detect, motion and occupancy detect, and many others.
New sensor that describes a completely new way of identifying the wavelength of light.
For exact distance measurements, laser triangulation sensors are the means of choice. For direct integration into the manufacturing environment, one manufacturer now presents laser sensors with Ethercat and Ethernet/IP interfaces. This combines precision and integrability in a very compact sensor.
A smart camera images only certain types of desired objects, while instantaneously erasing other types of objects.
Costs and effort for digitization are high if analog systems for signal data processing in traffic applications, logistics and monitoring are to be replaced. Retrofit solutions that expand analog systems without having to replace the entire infrastructure provide a remedy.
A Fraunhofer Center for Sensor Intelligence is to be established at Saarland University in Saarbrücken. Saarland's Minister President Tobias Hans and the President of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft Prof. Reimund Neugebauer signed an agreement to this effect. A new building is planned, which will cost 35 million euros and, after a five-year construction period, will be operated as a cooperative project between the Fraunhofer Institute for Biomedical Engineering IBMT and the Fraunhofer Institute for Nondestructive Testing IZFP.
