New types of sensors can generate environmental data in real time using a range of tools, including flexible, printed ICs and ...

Like all ceramics, piezo ceramics are brittle materials that are well suited to handling compressive loads but are highly sensitive to bending, shear and tensile loads. A number of mechanical ...

Why 850-nm light is well-suited to deep-body hemoglobin sensing. How VCSELs are used to create ultrasonic signal returns. How the combined optical/acoustic array was arranged and fabricated. By ...

Sensor fusion is becoming increasingly popular and more complex in automotive designs, integrating multiple types of sensors into a single chip or package and intelligently routing data to wherever it ...

As more and more refrigeration systems incorporate electronic controls into their design, it is becoming increasingly important for technicians to be able to troubleshoot these electronic devices. One ...

Smart home automation is the ultimate life hack, in my humble opinion. Whether for efficiency, accessibility, nerding out, or just plain laziness, all you need are smart home devices and a little ...

Most ultrasonic flaw detection and thickness gaging are carried out at normal temperatures. However, sometimes a hot material requires testing, for example, in process industries. In these instances, ...
