CAPACITIVE SENSOR MARKET

INTRODUCTION

Capacitive sensors are a fundamental class of electronic devices designed to detect and measure changes in capacitance, the ability of a material or object to store an electric charge.

These sensors operate on the principle that when two conductive surfaces are brought close together, they create an electric field between them, and the capacitance between these surfaces changes proportionally to the distance separating them.

This change in capacitance can be harnessed for a wide range of applications, from touch-sensitive screens in smartphones and tablets to proximity detection in automotive and industrial settings.

The core components of a capacitive sensor include two conductive plates, often referred to as electrodes, separated by a dielectric material. The dielectric material can be air, glass, plastic, or any insulating substance.

When an external object, such as a human finger, comes into proximity with one of the electrodes, it alters the electric field and consequently changes the capacitance between the plates.

This change is then converted into an electrical signal, which can be processed and interpreted to determine the presence, absence, or position of the object.
