I have a requirement to detect a water level in a clear plastic tube of about 20-25 mm diameter. This must be done non-invasively, so I'm considering either optical or capacitive sensing would be best
Has anybody done this? If so, what works best, and if optical, what part of the spectrum works best (UV, red, green, IR) ?
The sensing can be considered "binary" ie, it's either above or below a given level in the tube.
Thanks
Barry
