electromagnetism - How internal capacitor stud finders work?


I don't understand how can a non magnetic object like wood be detected using a stud finder


For instance, stud finders find wood from dielectric constance, but I don't understand the princible.


The basis of my question is to understand how sensors can detect non-magnetic objects in order to build a paintball ball counter.

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
