New York City's Department of Transportation is expanding its use of high-tech sensors across city streets, Commissioner Mike Flynn announced this week. The devices are meant to help the department ...
Simple circuit ratios sensor capacitance to reference capacitor to measure micrometers. It’s hard to imagine a simpler electromechanical sensor than the capacitance type, consisting of little more ...
Quantum computers get a lot of attention, even though they are not ready for prime time, but quantum sensors are already doing useful work. These sensors measure fields, forces and motion so small ...

Door sensors are some of the simplest smart home devices you can get. Instead of anything fancy like measuring the heat or motion, all they do is detect when their two halves are separated. Yet, that ...
Using AI chatbots for even just 10 minutes may have a shockingly negative impact on people’s ability to think and problem-solve, according to a new study from researchers at Carnegie Mellon, MIT, ...
After three generations, Google is apparently saying goodbye to its built-in temperature sensor on Pixel 11 Pro. 2023’s Pixel 8 Pro introduced one of Google’s first new hardware features in some time, ...
Capacitive displacement sensors span a wide range of resolution, from the touchscreen sensors which can only detect displacement as a binary state, all the way to the sensors in semiconductor fabs ...
A 3D cage-like flexible capacitive pressure sensor increases its sensitivity as pressure rises, offering tunable performance for wearable, structural, and environmental monitoring. (Nanowerk News) ...
Researchers in Ania Bleszynski Jayich’s lab use a mechanical resonator to enable greater entanglement for potentially more powerful sensors. Most people think of diamonds as high-end adornments. Not ...
Flexible capacitive pressure sensors have gained widespread application in health monitoring, robotics, and structural diagnostics. However, conventional designs that rely on flat or micropatterned ...
