The way they work is ingenious. Layers of silicone are sandwiched between two lengths of silver-plated conductive fabric forming — by some approximation — a capacitance sensor. While the total ...

The working principle of digital calipers is mysterious enough that we’d never think to dismantle, much less improve them, right? Well, think again, as [Limi DIY] retrofits the processing ...

JDI’s ZINNSIA tech uses a capacitive sensor that can remain accurate and sensitive, even through thick materials, and even ...
