Rogers cheerfully shoot water at an integrated circuit. We were in a lab at ... The labels read “fly eye camera,” “proximity sensor on vinyl glove,” “stretchable solar cells ...

Inspired by the human sense of touch, Youcan Yan, a CNRS postdoctoral researcher at the Laboratory of Computer Science, ...

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 ...

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 ...

I spent more than 14 years on staff, most recently as the director of operations for PC Labs, before hitting the freelance circuit as a contributing editor.

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 ...

SemiQ has released three 1.2kV three-phase silicon carbide mosfet bridges in 62.8 x 33.8 x 15mm press-fit six-pack modules. 20mΩ 263W GCMX020A120B2T1P 40mΩ 160W GCMX040A120B2T1P 80mΩ 103W ...

It also comes with a sensor that lets you know if your door ... While it lacks the built-in smarts of higher-end models and features like proximity-based automatic unlocking, the Proscenic L60 ...

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 ...

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

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 ...
