Capacitance Measurement System for Touchless Interaction

Description

This contribution deals with preliminary studies for touchless interaction based on capacitive sensor technology. The presented measurement system is able to measure capacitances in a range of a few fF to several pF (e.g., caused by human finger interaction). The main focus is the development of an intelligent shielding strategy in combination with a specific geometry of an electrode array in order to circumvent interference artefacts. This design ensures a rapid prototyping capability and is easily adaptable to different substrate materials.
