Magneto-ElasticMagneto-elastic technology offers accurate and reliable non-contact sensing of magnetic profiles and measurement of low Gauss fields. |
Biometric & Multispectral ImagingA robust and reliable way to verify user identification, Methode's biometric verification technology measures human cell characteristics that extend beneath the surface of the skin. |
OpticalOptical technology uses photo detectors, lens systems and code disks to perform non-contact, high resolution, angle, phase and absolute position measurement. |
Field-EffectNon-contact Field-Effect sensing technology can directly sense the presence of high-dielectric materials such as fluids, solids, and even human-tissue. |
CapacitiveMethode's non-contact sensing capacitive technology utilizes relative phase shift to determine displacement between fixed stator and reflective electrodes. |
Electro-MechanicalElectro-mechanical sensing technology offers the discrete motion detection of linear and rotary contacts. |
Conductive & Resistive InksMethode's screen printed cermet, Polymer Thick Film (PTF) and aqueous-based ink jet printable conductive inks are used for a wide range of application-specific sensor substrates. |
Eddy CurrentA non-contact solution, eddy current technology offers highly accurate position sensing of a metallic target without the use of a magnet. |
Hall EffectUtilizing a hall or GMR effect sensor, hall effect technology is the non-contact detection of a moving magnetic target. |
