Measuring temperature turns out to be a fundamental function for a huge number of devices. You furnace’s programmable thermostat and digital clocks are obvious examples. If you just needed to know if ...

Wearable devices are often exposed to environmental variables that can significantly impact temperature readings. A smartwatch sits on the wrist, where ambient air temperature, sunlight, and even wind ...

Highly accurate pressure sensors with long-term stability are necessary for fuel efficiency and reduction of harmful emissions. Increasingly demanding requirements of piezoresistive sensors include ...

As evidenced by the Covid-19 pandemic, quick and non-invasive techniques to assess body temperature have become necessary. In various locations, including hospitals, airports and schools, non-contact ...

It’s getting hot in here.

Accurately measuring small shifts in biological markers, like proteins and neurotransmitters, or harmful chemicals in the water supply, can identify critical problems before they have a chance to ...

What’s the difference between a transmitter and a sensor? Nine different types of sensor transmitters. How does each type of transmitter work? What are the components of each transmitter type? Sensors ...

Fluxgate current sensors have emerged as a robust technology for the measurement of both alternating and direct currents, harnessing the non-linear magnetic characteristics of ferromagnetic materials.

When treating patients for certain conditions – including COVID-19 – it's important to monitor their blood oxygen levels. A new sub-dermal photosensitive sensor provides a new means of doing so, plus ...
