Fun and Educational Measurement Activities for Kids (Preschool to High School)
Fun and Educational Measurement Activities for Kids (Preschool to High School) Image Source: Pixabay Did you know we perform measurement activities every day without even realizing it? From measuring ingredients for a recipe to estimating the distance to a destination, measurement is part of everyday life. Teaching children how to measure helps develop critical thinking, math skills, and real-world problem-solving abilities. Understanding measurement early on lays the groundwork for future success in math and science. Concepts like length, weight, volume, and time aren't just academic—they’re practical skills children will use throughout their lives. Making [...]
Selecting a Displacement Sensor / Measuring System
Capacitive displacement sensors Capacitive displacement sensors are non-contact devices that are used for measurements at a high-resolution. It can also be used to check the position of any conductive object as well as measure the width or density of non-conductive materials. Capacitive displacement sensors have a large variety of uses including precision thickness measurements, assembly line testing, assembly metrology, and semiconductor processing. Capacitive displacement sensors can be found in manufacturing facilities all around the globe. There’s more to selecting the proper type of displacement sensor and measurement system than meets the eye. To select the appropriate type of device [...]

Target Material and Characteristics
Target Material and Characteristics Transparent/Opaque Targets There are a number of measurement systems that are capable of measuring a target that is opaque. When it comes to transparent targets, the measurement system being used must match the material of the target being measured. For example, if you’re attempting to measure plastic you should use a contact-type measurement system such as a micrometer. When performing a soft target measurement, such as film, a non-contact measurement system (such as a laser displacement sensor) should be utilized. Hard/Soft Targets Objects made out of hard material (such as a block of wood), would [...]
