A good capacitive sensor design can improve a product's HMI (human machine interface) performance and robustness. A properly designed proximity sensor can be used to detect a finger or hand approaching from some distance away. Using a proximity sensor to wake up a product from sleep or illuminating keys or buttons in a dark environment are typical uses of a proximity sensor.
