DASY8 Module SENS V2.0: Faster and More Comprehensive Proximity Sensor Testing

SPEAG’s latest update to DASY8 Module SENS unlocks unprecedented flexibility and automation for proximity sensor characterization – supporting sensing from the torso to the fingers, custom phantoms, precise tilt testing, and enhanced automation.

SPEAG today announces the release of DASY8 Module SENS V2.0, the next evolution in automated testing of proximity sensors. Designed for engineers and compliance testing facilities, this update delivers critical enhancements that streamline testing workflows, expand measurement capabilities, and reduce manual effort – enabling faster, more accurate, and fully automated characterization of proximity sensors across diverse device geometries, materials, and use cases.

New Features and Enhancements

  • Sensing from Torso to Fingers: With Module SENS V2.0, SPEAG provides additional physical phantoms from the torso to the fingers as well as simulations of standardized phantoms, e.g., DASY’s ELI phantom enabling, for the first time, precise evaluation of how sensor performance varies with position and phantom material composition and shape. Additionally, Module SENS V2.0 enables advanced measurements – such as multi-sensor-fusion setups, coverage area mapping, and blind-spot detection – essential for next-gen device validation and making Module SENS V2.0 a valuable tool not only for compliance testing but also for sensor research and development.

  • Support for Custom Phantoms: Module SENS V2.0 allows users to define custom phantom geometries and materials for sensor testing.

  • Automated Tilt Testing: The new tilt functionality of Module SENS V2.0 automates testing across a ±45° range with an accuracy of 0.2 mm, allowing full edge-to-edge characterization without manual repositioning, drastically reducing operator time and ensuring compliance with evolving global standards.
  • Enhanced Automation and Workflow: DASY8 Module SENS V2.0 introduces two key automation upgrades: Wireless Charging Support, first introduced in DASY83D V1.10, enables uninterrupted, long-duration measurement campaigns by automatically charging the device under test during testing and eliminating battery-life constraints. Additionally, Module SENS V2.0 delivers a data export format updated for seamless integration into automated post-processing pipelines, reducing manual data handling.
  • Modernized GUI: The updated graphical user interface (GUI) – powered by the Electron framework introduced earlier with DASY83D V1.10 – delivers a smoother, more responsive user experience and provides enhanced visualization tools, like specific absorption rate (SAR) vs. distance plots, to accelerate analysis and decision-making.

Alongside the DASY8 Module SENS V2.0 release, SPEAG has also released cSAR3D V5.10.8, a maintenance and performance update for its widely used SAR measurement solution.
