Measurement of capacitive sensor with Arduino

Abstract

© 2016 IEEE. This paper presents a measurement system with capacitive sensor connected to an open-source electronic platform Arduino Uno. A simple code was modified in the project, which ensures that the platform works as interface for the sensor. The code can be modified and upgraded at any time to fulfill other specific applications. The simulations were carried out in the platform's own environment and the collected data are represented in graphical form. Accuracy of developed measurement platform is 0.1 pF.
