Description

This group is dedicated to sensors and transducers.

Sensors are multidisciplinary objects. I've put this group into a more specific "Engineering > Electrical" cathegory, because sensors are often viewed as a part of the EE domain.

Everyone's welcome: engineers, researchers, educated hobbyists, students (we like to help you but we prefer not to do the school homework instead of you)

Questions such as "I need to measure (or control) something. What sensors do I need? How can I interface them to the rest of my device?" are most welcome, because brainstorms are fun. Any well-formulated questions related to sensors are welcome.

My personal interest is transducers for underwater acoustic communication. But I'll try to participate in other discussions too.

No spam. Ban on 1st offense. I considered job postings spam. This is an engineering group, not an HR group. There are special groups for jobs. However, rare exceptions can be arranged in advance for the active members.

Ultrasonic transparent materials?
I will be experimenting with ultrasonics in the 20-30 KHz range shortly. One concern, due to location of the equipment is dust, insects and small birds
