Smart home automation is the ultimate life hack, in my humble opinion. Whether for efficiency, accessibility, nerding out, or just plain laziness, all you need are smart home devices and a little ...

Application characteristics help specifiers choose the best discrete sensor type. Industrial automation systems depend on sensors to detect what is going on with machinery and products for effective ...

The types of magnetic sensors that are currently available. How the magnetic sensors work. Applications for the different magnetic sensors. Position sensors enable a variety of functions and controls ...

Motion plugs into existing outlets much like a smart plug, but instead of controlling devices it monitors the signals that the Wi-Fi router produces. Gauging how signals change throughout a home lets ...

TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) sensors monitor the air pressure in a vehicle's tires and alert the driver when the pressure drops below a certain level. They are designed to increase road ...

Researchers have invented an entirely new field of microscopy -- nuclear spin microscopy. The team can visualize magnetic signals of nuclear magnetic resonance with a microscope. Quantum sensors ...

A research team develops a fixed LiDAR sensor that can recognize all directions simultaneously. The LiDAR sensor, which recognizes objects by projecting light onto them, functions as eyes for ...

Earlier this year, while speaking with Fierce Medtech at the annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference, Dexcom CEO Kevin Sayer noted that the continuous glucose monitor maker had recently changed its ...
