Makers might be interested to know that Adafruit is now stocking a new STEMMA capacitive soil moisture sensor which provides superior enhancements when compared with resistive style soil moisture ...

A frequent beginner project involves measuring soil moisture levels by measuring its resistance with a couple of electrodes. These electrodes are available ready-made as PCBs, but suffer badly from ...

If you’ve got a smart home, or you just want to know how soaked your garden is getting in the winter, you might want to measure rainfall. There are a bunch of ways to go about it, and this capacitive ...

There are many good reasons for growers to use some form of soil moisture-sensing technology to monitor conditions and how the water is being used in irrigated crops. First and foremost, it can make ...

As with traditional mechanical switches, a user's interface experience with a capacitive sensor is directly related to the way the sensor responds (sensitivity) upon contact under all operating ...

Soil moisture profile measurements are an integral component of water balance estimation networks, especially in thick vadose zones and fine-grained soil environments. At field sites with silty and ...

In many electronics products such as consumer, home appliance, automotive, industrial etc., capacitive touch buttons are fast replacing traditional mechanical buttons. Although capacitive buttons have ...
