Re: Sensor "de-noising"

Yes, if you're absolutely convinced that you're dealing with electrical noise, aluminum foil might help. But other things will probably help a lot more, like keeping your sensor wires away from high-current-carrying wires and using a pull-up resistor.

Are you actually dealing with electrical noise, or is this a sensor noise issue? Is your signal clean coming directly out of the sensor?
