Oregon State University researchers have developed a brain-inspired phototransistor that combines light sensing, memory, and ...

An overwhelming majority of handheld devices these days have ambient light sensors built into them. A large percentage of TVs and monitors do, too, and that proportion is growing. The sensors allow ...

Sensors don't have to be used to be useful.

The global pressure sensor market is projected to grow from USD 12.8 billion in 2025 to USD 18.6 billion by 2031, registering ...

The pacemaker is a medical device that was initially introduced in 1958. At that time, the device used external components and was far from inconspicuous or convenient. Image Credit: Amphenol Sensors ...

Edge computing on a smartphone has been used to analyze data collected by a multimodal flexible wearable sensor patch and detect arrhythmia, coughs and falls. Wearable sensors are devices that can be ...

It takes months of R&D, numerous prototypes, and a few scrapped concepts for the design of a device used in patient care to be finalized and approved. However, one aspect is often still missing at ...

Quantum mechanics states that electrons have two stable spins—up and down. With the advent of nanoscale fabrication methods, device companies are harnessing this knowledge to create devices. The ...

In a breakthrough that could transform bioelectronic sensing, an interdisciplinary team of researchers at Rice University has developed a new method to dramatically enhance the sensitivity of ...
