← ScienceWhich risk increases when capacitive proximity sensors misreport distance?
A)Robot arm collision occurs frequently✓
B)Material corrosion accelerates severely
C)Inductive motor windings overheat rapidly
D)Transistor switching losses are reduced
💡 Explanation
When capacitive sensors fail to trigger an emergency stop, the robot arm moves unrestricted; the resulting collision occurs because the safe distance threshold isn't enforced, therefore a crash is more probable, rather than corrosion or overheating outcomes with alternative failures.
