Infrared sensors, which act as the "seeing" component in devices such as LiDAR for autonomous vehicles, 3D face recognition systems in smartphones, and wearable health care devices, are regarded as ...

A study from the College of Engineering and Computer Science and the Sensing Institute (I-SENSE) at Florida Atlantic University reveals that foot-mounted wearable sensors and a 3D depth camera can ...

Why auxetic materials offer some unique advantages in sensor fabrication. How additive manufacturing was used with autextic materials to create unique pressure and force sensors. The structure and ...

Tire pressure monitoring sensors (TPMS) work by constantly measuring the air pressure within all four of your tires, then relaying that data to your car's computer. If the system is unable to measure ...

Early-stage disease diagnosis relies on the highly sensitive detection of biomarkers. Optical whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) microcavity sensors have emerged as a highly promising technology for ...

The Venus flytrap possesses sensory hairs that detect prey via touch stimuli. Bending of the sensory hair trigger Ca 2+ and electrical signals that propagate to the leaf blade. Saitama, Japan: Plants ...

Auto sensors of various types have proliferated in new models and offer drivers greater safety to prevent side, front and rear-end collisions, but there’s a downside as well. When accidents do happen, ...

Abstract: Capacitive touch screens have become the dominant user interface over the past decade. Achieving high framerates with low power consumption remains a critical design goal for touch systems.

LOWCOUNTRY, S.C. (WCIV) — Flooding is one thing that residents can count on here in the Lowcountry, whether it’s coastal flooding with high tide cycles or freshwater flooding after heavy rain or ...

As robots increasingly enter human spaces, robotics companies will need to think about safety differently than they did when robots were largely siloed from their human counterparts. Sonair thinks its ...

Apple’s next AirPods Pro may be getting their biggest update in years, and it starts with the case. According to a report from Android Headlines, the AirPods Pro 3 charging case will drop the usual ...

Capacitive touch sensors are entirely in the domain of DIY, requiring little more than a carefully-chosen conductive surface and a microcontroller. This led [John Phillips] to ask why not embed such ...
