  2. Acoustic location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_location

    is the distance between the two sensors (ears) in meters, θ {\displaystyle \theta } is the angle between the baseline of the sensors (ears) and the incident sound, in degrees. Triangulation

  3. Capacitive displacement sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitive_displacement_sensor

    Capacitive displacement sensors share many similarities to eddy current (or inductive) displacement sensors; however capacitive sensors use an electric field as opposed to the magnetic field used by eddy current sensors [10] [11] This leads to a variety of differences between the two sensing technologies, with the most notable differences being ...

  4. Displacement measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_measurement

    Displacement measurement is the measurement of changes in directed distance (displacement). Devices measuring displacement are based on displacement sensors, which can be contacting or non-contacting. [1] Some displacement sensors are based on displacement transducers, [2] devices which convert displacement into another form of energy. [3]

  5. 3D sound localization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_sound_localization

    3D sound localization refers to an acoustic technology that is used to locate the source of a sound in a three-dimensional space.The source location is usually determined by the direction of the incoming sound waves (horizontal and vertical angles) and the distance between the source and sensors.

  6. Time of flight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_of_flight

    A time-of-flight camera (ToF camera), also known as time-of-flight sensor (ToF sensor), is a range imaging camera system for measuring distances between the camera and the subject for each point of the image based on time-of-flight, the round trip time of an artificial light signal, as provided by a laser or an LED.

  7. Sonar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonar

    To measure distance, one transducer/projector transmits an interrogation signal and measures the time between this transmission and the receipt of the other transducer/hydrophone reply. The time difference, scaled by the speed of sound through water and divided by two, is the distance between the two platforms.

  8. Slant range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slant_range

    Sensor slant range Sensor slant range (1) In radio electronics, especially radar terminology, slant range or slant distance is the distance along the relative direction between two points. If the two points are at the same level (relative to a specific datum), the slant distance equals the horizontal distance.

  9. Distance measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_measure

    Distance measures are used in physical cosmology to give a natural notion of the distance between two objects or events in the universe.They are often used to tie some observable quantity (such as the luminosity of a distant quasar, the redshift of a distant galaxy, or the angular size of the acoustic peaks in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) power spectrum) to another quantity that is ...
