There’s apparently little limit to the innovative ways that are available to sense temperature, among the most widely sensed physical parameters. Now, a team Washington University in St. Louis has ...

The Optipact motion sensors determine rotational or translational velocities of machinery or products in a wide variety of applications. The sensors are built around an optical system: The velocity of ...

Researchers report that they have invented new nanoscale sensors of force. They are luminescent nanocrystals that can change intensity and/or color when you push or pull on them. These 'all-optical' ...

A new technical paper titled “Massively parallel and universal approximation of nonlinear functions using diffractive processors” was published by researchers at UCLA. “Nonlinear computation is ...

For electrical engineers working in almost any part of the wired or wireless spectrum, the spectrum analyzer is a critical test and measurement tool. For optical engineering, the equivalent tool is ...

The evolution of modern healthcare has been profoundly shaped by advancements in medical devices, with sensors playing a crucial role in this transformation. As the demand for more accurate, portable, ...

Understanding the anatomical structure and function of the brain is a longstanding goal in neuroscience and a top priority of President Obama’s brain initiative. Electrical monitoring and stimulation ...
