X-ray transmission sensors measure material density and atomic number. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) probes elemental composition by analyzing the light spectrum of laser-ablated micro-plasmas on the material surface. ...
In the most demanding industrial and municipal settings, equipment reliability isn’t optional — it’s essential. Inspections of pipelines, manholes, or confined spaces often expose tools to extreme conditions: moisture, heat, chemicals, mud, vibrations, and more. This is the challenge RinnoVision set out to solve with the RV-MAX 360, a cutting-edge inspection camera designed ...

For in-cabin monitoring, Cubic integrates PM2.5 sensor based on light scattering technology with CO2 sensor adopting advanced Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology. ...
Direct sunlight (straight from the sun) Diffuse light (scattered from the sky) Reflected light (from the ground or surroundings) Note: we shouldn’t mix between Diffuse light and DHI, because POA includes diffuse light, but not exactly the DHI measured on a flat surface, it’s the diffuse light as it falls onto the ...
Based on more than 20 years of experience in sensing technologies, Cubic, a leading manufacturer of gas sensors and analyzers, develops core IAQ sensors including NDIRCO2 sensors and light scattering PM sensors based on core technology platforms. ...
The measurement of manufactured components has evolved across decades. Traditional coordinate measuring machines (CMM) set a foundation for precision validation, while optical metrology introduced speed and non-contact ...
Typically, MOS sensors are popular because of its compact size and cost effectiveness. ...
Introduction Surface finish tells us a lot about how a part will perform, whether it will seal properly, move smoothly, or wear too soon. Measuring surface roughness is the science of quantifying those tiny peaks and valleys on a material’s surface. Over the years, this field has evolved from contact-based tools to advanced non-contact optical metrology techniques that deliver microscopic ...
Introduction If you’ve ever wondered how engineers measure the tiniest details on a surface from semiconductor wafers to mobile phone parts, the answer often lies in a field called profilometry. In this blog, we’ll break down what profilometry is, how it works, and the key differences between contact and non-contact measurement methods in the simplest way possible. ...
Cubic has developed a comprehensive portfolio of gas sensors based on core technologies including NDIR, light scattering, MEMS MOX, and electrochemical principles, enabling accurate detection of key indoor air quality parameters such as carbon dioxide (CO2), particulate matter (PM1.0, PM2.5, PM10), total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs), temperature, humidity, ...
