and control inside biological systems – opening the door to a new generation of “molecular robots” that interact directly with cellular environments. At the core of this technology are DNA strand ...

These reporting molecules were linked to genetic circuits that detect nearby bacteria, but this approach could also be combined with any existing sensor, such as those for arsenic or other ...

Advanced Linear Devices has introduced a voltage balancing IC for series-connected pairs of 3.3V supercapacitors. Inside is a pair of mosfet-like devices with a sharp ‘knee’ in their voltage-current ...

Wind turbines are getting bigger and bigger and so do their slender, flexible blades. As these blades need to last ever longer, there is an increased need to monitor their load and fatigue build-up, ...

Most modern robot vacuums use sensor technology to navigate around a room, but some models are more advanced than others. Basic robots have infrared sensors to stop them from bumping into things ...

In this paper, an analog-based phase calculation readout circuit with a 3 μs row time for an indirect time-of-flight (i-ToF) 3D image sensor is proposed. The circuit achieves the calculation of ...

The oscillator circuits shown here let you operate those sensors. Sensor circuits that connect to thermocouples, electromagnetic mechanical-to-electrical transducers, and piezoelectric ...

As it comes with a 120mm round base, two N20 motors for smooth movement, and a 360° LiDAR sensor for accurate mapping of its surroundings, this setup allows it to navigate spaces, avoid obstacles, and ...

Imagine a robot that can run like a dog without using motors. A team of researchers from TU Delft and EPFL has created a motor-free quadruped robot that mimics a dog’s running motion. Instead of ...

Liaoning Key Laboratory of Information Physics Fusion and Intelligent Manufacturing for CNC Machine, Shenyang Institute of Technology, Shenfu New District 113122, Fushun, Liaoning, P. R. China School ...

To achieve maximum spectral isolation and confinement, we propose a unique zero-energy topological lattice circuit that combines chiral symmetry ... a promising innovation path for the future sensor ...

Circuit sculpture is a great way to elevate ... t have to watch and wait for the info they want. Thanks to an IR proximity sensor, [romain] can interrupt the cycle and get the date, time ...
