A tiny sensor that can detect magnetic field changes as small as 70 femtoteslas-equivalent to the brain waves of a person daydreaming-has been demonstrated at the National Institute of Standards and ...

Researchers have used a miniature atom-based magnetic sensor to successfully track a human heartbeat, confirming the device's potential for biomedical applications. Researchers from the National ...

Electrical engineers are developing an on-chip imaging sensor with small pixels and 12,616 mini-optic lenses that are created as part of the semiconductor manufacturing process. Used in a digital ...

A prototype optical sensor thought to be capable of providing an early warning if a bridge is at risk of scour - the number one cause of bridge collapse globally - has been developed by a Queen's ...

Microscopy is the universal diagnostic method for detection of most globally significant parasitic infections. Methods developed in well-equipped laboratories are, however, difficult to use at the ...

Recently, I exhausted my stock of common passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor modules and was looking for a new one to play with. I searched the web for a small type with self-contained electronics.

Micron Optics has announced an OEM module that drives National Instruments' PXIe-4844 optical sensor interrogator. The NI product combines Micron Optics' core optical-sensing technologies within a ...
