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, ...
Transitioning to renewable sources for electricity not only reduces GHG emissions but also provides long-term cost savings.✅ Smart Lighting and HVAC Systems Replacing traditional lighting with LED systems, installing motion sensors, and using smart thermostats helps conserve energy throughout the factory, especially in large gantry crane ...

The camera lens collects the reflected light and displays it on the sensor. LiDAR works similarly. When a LiDAR laser beam hits an object, such as a tree or building, some of the light is reflected from the sensor [5]. By accurately timing the return of each laser pulse, the LiDAR system can determine the distance ...
