ABLIC, a Japanese analog semiconductor specialist, is at the forefront of innovating battery-less sensors that harness previously untapped environmental energy.

SICK has unveiled the first photoelectric sensor with a touchscreen display, heralding the future for universal and easy-set-up sensing.

In the intricate ecosystem of a car's engine, oxygen sensors, also known as lambda sensors, play a pivotal role in ensuring efficiency and environmental compliance.

Researchers have developed an exceptionally sensitive touch sensor that revolutionises the field of robotics and bionics by sensing even without direct contact with the objects it detects.

Computer scientists from the University of California San Diego and Carnegie Mellon University have unveiled a novel system that integrates real-world sensing with virtual reality, poised to revolutionise the maintenance of commercial buildings.

With the shift towards electric vehicles, end-users are becoming less concerned about traditional differentiators like engine horsepower and are placing greater emphasis on smart interior functions.

An optical module is a system of optical components that does more than just transmit a single image. For example, in interferometry - an optical module may use beamsplitters or prisms to create many images from a single image.

In the quest for human expansion into space, the University of Arizona's College of Engineering is pioneering an approach that draws inspiration from one of nature's most impressive architects: termites.

Blind and partially sighted individuals may soon navigate indoor spaces more freely with the assistance of a robotic guide dog.

The UFM-01 module uses ScioSense’s ultrasonic flow technology; hence, it contains no rotors or other moving parts, leading to significant improvements over traditional, mechanical-based flow sensors.
