Chip-based sensors with incredible sensitivity

This can be coupled to a light source to make a sensor." That type of sensor consists of solid spheres and is not compatible with microfabrication methods, but recently Tadigadapa and his team developed an innovative way to grow on-chip glass ...

Traffic Sensor Market Projected to be Influenced by Rising Technological Innovations

Traffic sensors or traffic light sensors are devices which are used to manage inconsistent traffic flow efficiently. Traffic sensors also detect if cars have entered turn lanes, cars have arrived at intersections, or cars are stacked at intersections.

Li-ion battery fire risk reduced by use of Nanodiamonds

Charging stability improvements. ND = Nanodiamonds The professor emphasised to EETimes that nanodiamonds are, in fact “cheap to manufacture and can be created from waste materials”. He describes how nanodiamonds are formed as a by-product of disposing ...
