Typical applications of motion detection are detecting the stalling of conveyors or the seizing of bearings. Key specifications include the intended application, sensor type, sensor function, and minimum and maximum speeds. More information about motion sensors may be found in our related guide All About Motion Sensors. Proximity Sensors are electronic devices used to detect the presence of nearby objects through non-contacting means. A proximity sensor can detect the presence of objects usually within a range of up to several millimeters, and, doing so, produce a usually dc output signal to a controller. Proximity sensors are used in countless manufacturing operations to detect the presence of parts and machine components.

Yet rice, pre-eminently a tropical plant, would produce yields around 50% bigger than at present if it took the C4 route. At the International Rice Research Institute in Los Banos, outside Manila, researchers are trying to show it how. Its raw material is drawn from Landsat and other public satellite programmes. It also has access to these programmes’ libraries, some of which go back 30 years. Then, knowing the field’s biomass in the current season, it can predict what the yield will be.

Previous proposals such as IntServ, DiffServ, and IP Multicast have not seen wide acceptance largely because they require modification of all routers in the network. On the other hand, an overlay network can be incrementally deployed on end-hosts running the overlay protocol software, without cooperation from Internet service providers. The overlay network has no control over how packets are routed in the underlying network between two overlay nodes, but it can control, for example, the sequence of overlay nodes that a message traverses before it reaches its destination. There are also different types of network connections that concern how elements in a network are connected to each other.

Bosch Sensortec develops and markets a wide portfolio of MEMS sensors and solutions for applications in smartphones, tablets, wearables, AR/VR devices, drones, robots, smart home and the Internet of Things. Striving to meet the demanding requirements of the consumer electronics market, we provide best-in-class sensing solutions in terms of customer focus, quality and reliability, performance, sustainability and competitiveness. The sensitivity is then defined as the ratio between the output signal and measured property.

Backbone networkA backbone network is part of a computer network infrastructure that provides a path for the exchange of information between different LANs or subnetworks. A backbone can tie together diverse networks within the same building, across different buildings, or over a wide area. For example, a university campus network is likely to link a variety of campus buildings to connect academic colleges or departments, the library, and student residence halls. Networks may be characterized by many properties or features, such as physical capacity, organizational purpose, user authorization, access rights, and others. Another distinct classification method is that of the physical extent or geographic scale.

In an effort to enhance milk and meat production, the government recently launched a comprehensive livestock development project with Asian Development Bank assistance. Poultry production provides an increasingly popular low-cost source of protein. Modern poultry production is constrained by high mortality, high incidence of disease, poor quality chicks, and poor quality feed, combined with an inadequate marketing system. As economic development proceeds, a large proportion of the farm labour force must shift from agriculture into other pursuits.
