Penn State University researchers have built a dual-gated graphene sensor that operates reliably in liquid environments, ...

If you were asked to design a camera sensor, you'd naturally put the photo receptors on top, closest to the light. Oddly enough, because of the way chips are fabricated, until recently most camera ...

You don't need a sophisticated system to smarten up your home. There are many options requiring only a single smart sensor ...

Thermopile sensors offer a reliable way to measure temperature without physical contact, making them ideal for real-world applications where speed, safety, and precision matter. Whether you are ...

Researchers have developed a new reliable and durable sensor that can work in temperatures as high as 900 degrees Celsius or 1,650 degrees Fahrenheit and can be used in multiple industries. Extreme ...

Application characteristics help specifiers choose the best discrete sensor type. Industrial automation systems depend on sensors to detect what is going on with machinery and products for effective ...

A nanowire diode with a built-in electron trap senses, denoises, and classifies images without separate processing hardware, mimicking the retina and opening a path to smarter edge computing.

Tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) are relatively new additions to your car’s suite of sensors. At least if you’re old enough to remember when keeping an eye on tire pressures was boasted about ...

Designed to work with LCD backlighting, the BH16xx analog-output and BH17xx digital-output ambient light sensor series are said to offer industry-leading stability over a wide range of light sources.

Waiting for chest X-rays or lab results to diagnose pneumonia and other lung-related diseases may not be necessary in the ...

My adventures of building a smart home on a shoestring budget are taking an interesting turn. It turns out that I don’t need to splurge on costly smart home devices. Thanks to my colleague Adam Conway ...
