Sensors Teaching Lab FHNW
This laboratory is used in particular for teaching measurement and sensor technology, which is characterized by the fact that many different sensors can be tested “hands-on”.
We offer sensors for many measured variables, which can be borrowed for initial preliminary tests.
For more information or to discuss a collaboration, please contact Gerd Simons.
Overview of available sensors by measured variable:
- Presence and distance: Inductive, capacitive, triangulation, time-of-flight optical and ultrasonic, radar, laser scanner
- Audio: Microphones, sound pressure, recorder
- Flow: Coriolis, ultrasonic, magnetic-inductive, vortex, anemometer, rotameter
- Electrical quantities: Power, voltage, current, frequency
- Pressure: Ceramics
- Force: DMS, piezoelectric
- Radiation: Hyperspectral camera, pyranometer
- Temperature: Expansion, resistance, thermocouples, thermographic camera
- Environmental parameters: Wind, rainfall, k-value, humidity, soil moisture
- Vibration: Capacitive, piezoelectric
