In a step toward more autonomous soft robots and wearable technologies, researchers have created a device that uses color to simultaneously sense multiple mechanical and temperature stimuli. Robotics ...

How sensors are driving predictive maintenance. How maintenance is traditionally performed and the importance of moving to a data-driven approach. An overview of how sensors are the eyes and ears of ...

Not all poisonous gases have a smell or a color. But a tiny grid of pastel- and candy-colored squares that effectively “sniffs” out hazardous chemicals in the air such as chlorosarin — a highly toxic ...

A research team led by Professor JIANG Changlong at the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed a highly sensitive, real-time sensor for detecting trace water, ...

Designed to provide ultra-long range color verification, the BFS 30M color sensor offers a detection range of 30-100mm, with a recommended operating range of 50mm. Dec. 19, 2006 The BFS 30M’s high ...

(Nanowerk News) Robotics researchers have already made great strides in developing sensors that can perceive changes in position, pressure, and temperature – all of which are important for ...
