    314159: did you check out the price of that capacitive sensor? EEEEEP...

    I'm not sure how specific the capacitive sensors are to alignment with the axis of the sensor. they probally aren't that specific so a ball coming across sideways would be easily tuned for..

    Also note, this sensor is more than an inch long...

        As society and the problems that face it become more and more complex and machines become more and more intelligent, people will let machines make more of their decisions for them, simply because machine-made decisions will bring better results than man-made ones. Eventually a stage may be reached at which the decisions necessary to keep the system running will be so complex that human beings will be incapable of making them intelligently. At that stage the machines will be in effective control. People won't be able to just turn the machines off, because they will be so dependent on them that turning them off would amount to suicide

        sometimes I just freaking hate people. which means the next day I will love them for the sake of balance, but right now I will just concentrate on the hating. Hate hate hate. Blaaaarg! ;)

            for normally open and normally closed. $111 for quanaty 1 is expensive.

                AGD,

                The Qprox chips can do touch or proximity. If fact some are use to detect fluid levels, paintball are fluid the last time I checked. Another advantage is that they don't work like traditional prox setups. They can work through/behind plastic etc. PM me if you want to talk offline.
