Further messages reveal that Mayor Jefferson has been diverting the town's water to an illegal mining operation by corrupt tycoon Blake Thrust, leading the mayor to flee the town. Eventually, the power washer is hired to clean a flying saucer controlled by Ceruleon Skye, a time-travelling scientist from the year 2278.
A proximity sensor (often simply prox) is a sensor able to detect the presence of nearby objects without any physical contact. A proximity sensor often emits an electromagnetic field or a beam of electromagnetic radiation ( infrared , for instance), and looks for changes in the field or return signal .
The electromagnetic parking sensor (EPS) was re-invented and patented in 1992 by Mauro Del Signore. [2] Electromagnetic sensors rely on the vehicle moving slowly and smoothly towards the object to be avoided. Once an obstacle is detected, the sensor continues to signal the presence of the obstacle even if the vehicle momentarily stops.
Proximity: Non-contact detection of an object. Sensors can measure physical properties, such as the distance between objects, the presence of light and the frequency of sound. [3] They can measure: Object Proximity: The presence/absence of an object, bearing, color, distance between objects. Physical orientation. The co-ordinates of object in ...
Many types of sensors use capacitive sensing, including sensors to detect and measure proximity, pressure, position and displacement, force, humidity, fluid level, and acceleration. Human interface devices based on capacitive sensing, such as touchpads, [1] can replace the computer mouse.
The second type of sensor is a high spatial resolution sensor which can be compared to a human fingertip and is essential for the tactile acuity in robotic hands. The third and final tactile sensor type is a low spatial resolution sensor which has similar tactile acuity as the skin on one's back or arm. [ 28 ]
[2] Since the output of an inductive sensor has two possible states, an inductive sensor is sometimes referred to as an inductive proximity switch. [2] [3] The sensor consists of an induction loop or detector coil. Most often this is physically a number of turns of insulated magnet wire wound around a high magnetic permeability core, such as a ...
Automation (known as Automation: The Car Company Tycoon Game in cover and online sources) is a simulation video game developed by New Zealand-based developer Camshaft Software for Microsoft Windows that allows the player to create and run a virtual car company and design vehicles to sell. [1] It is currently available via Steam. [2]
