A newly developed, low-cost sensor can detect and accurately measure the amount of the widely used and controversial herbicide, glyphosate, in droplets of liquid in a laboratory test. Engineers ...

(Nanowerk News) Certain types of sensors detect and identify different types of hazardous pollutants, such as toxic or explosive gases. Some also measure gas concentration. The majority of our days ...

Pressure sensors are important tools for accurate sensing of applied forces. However, they can mostly sense forces along only a single direction. In a new study, scientists take things to the next ...

Researchers have used a specialized form of additive manufacturing to create MEMS sensors that can be fabricated as custom, single-quantity units. Why custom-made sensors using additive manufacturing ...

A new category of sensing technology transforms mobile robot vision from 2D to 3D, improves safety performance and provides 50-80% cost savings compared to traditional, LiDAR-based systems and sensor ...

If you’re concerned about the toxicity levels emitted by your 3D printer, a new project offers a solution to help protect your home or business from harmful pollutants. While it’s exciting to watch ...

(Nanowerk News) Eyelashes and brows catch dust and debris from entering eyes. The same idea goes for tiny nose and ear hairs. At a more microscopic level, the tiny hair-like cilia that line human ...
