Artificial Intelligence (AI) hardware is increasingly drawing inspiration from the human brain’s structure and how it functions.

University of Cambridge researchers have unveiled a robotic sensor equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, setting a new benchmark in the field of tactile technology.

SICK has added Liquid Lens technology to the Lector 61X, its smallest image-based code reader, to deliver rapid and infinitely-variable focal adjustment and a significantly-extended depth of field.

At Light + Building 2024, EnOcean is set to introduce the enhanced EMDC energy harvesting motion and activity sensor family.

Project leader Airbus Defence and Space Ltd (UK) awarded Sener the design and prototyping of the Sun Polychromator (SPC), a key instrument for the TRUTHS mission payload, being a critical and complex element of the satellite’s innovative on-board calibration system.

This blog explores types of skin analysers prevalent in the industry and gives insights on the kind of cameras that should be used to get the best results.

STMicroelectronics, a global semiconductor pioneer serving customers across the spectrum of electronics applications, and Mobile Physics, a software-development startup specialised in environmental physics, have revealed an exclusive collaboration that enables smartphones and other devices to measure household and ambient air quality with a built-in optical sensor.

Continuous airflow measurements during anesthesia monitoring, intensive care treatment as well as in clinical and ambulatory environments provide important information for the assessment of cardiorespiratory and breathing circuit behaviour. Therefore, flow sensors and have become indispensable in modern medicine.

3D mapping technology is becoming prominent in several industries, from manufacturing and healthcare to agriculture.

A breakthrough sensor, conceived by a team at ETH Zurich led by Marc Serra-Garcia and Johan Robertsson, a professor of geophysics, leverages sound wave energy to operate electronic devices, potentially eliminating the need for millions of batteries.
