Hey, since I'm a somewhat a beginner in using Arduino Uno, I would like to ask if it is possible to connect an inductive proximity sensor and capacitive proximity sensor on the same Arduino Uno? and if possible can you show me how? This is my project for my research. Thanks!!
Links to their datasheets please.
If this is an educational
Project you need to do the research - look at commercial systems , what sensors are out there what type of output, how they work, good and bad points - then make your choice as to what you think will be suitable .
When you write up the project it will look better to have reasoned choice rather than “ I asked on a forum “‘
It’s training for working in the real world and more important than making something that works without any decision making on your part
In principle you can have both devices on your Arduino.. depending on your choice
Ok thanks dude, but i've already done some research and I've found a similar research paper however he didn't indicated how to connect it
But how can I attach the inductive and capacitive proximity sensors to the arduino?
So if you want to copy what’s been done - get the details of the sensors he used , specification sheet etc find out what form the output is and work out how to do it . You might as well ask “ how do I connect a banana to an Arduino ?” You provide no details of any devices .
If you copy his work , then you haven’t developed anything yourself - it’s good to appraise someone’s else’s project and even use it as a basis - if you just repeat it , I’d give low marks ( ask yourself why he used those devices , are better/worse available ? And so on )
