dielectric sensors

Dielectric sensors measure how a material responds to an electric field, specifically its ability to store and transmit electrical energy. When placed near or inside a material, they assess its dielectric properties—related to moisture, composition, or purity—by sending a small electric signal and analyzing the response. These sensors are useful in various industries like agriculture for soil moisture, manufacturing for material quality, and electronics for component testing, providing accurate, real-time data without damaging the material.
