Teledyne Lumenera, a Teledyne Technologies company, and manufacturer and developer of digital cameras for industrial and scientific imaging applications, has announced the release of the new Lt Series USB3 cameras. With robust compact enclosures and fully-locking USB3 connectors, these new cameras are built for rugged 24/7 use. Equipped with the latest rolling shutter Starvis CMOS […]
How can kirigami be used for sensing pressure?
If you are like me, you are aware of origami (the Japanese art of paper folding) but need a refresher on kirigami. Unlike origami figures that can only be made by folding, kirigami involves both folding and cutting. Inspired by kirigami, researchers at Texas A&M University developed 3D polymer-based kirigami architectures for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) […]
Circular geometry photodiode irradiance and dosage sensor replaces traditional radiometers
MKS Instruments, Inc. introduced the Newport 818-RAD photodiode sensor with 8 mm aperture and cosine corrected diffuser for precise irradiance and dosage measurements. The 818-RAD enables more accurate measurements of LED light sources than standard photodiode sensors. It also offers calibration over a broad spectral range and is designed to replace traditional radiometers, which are […]
SMI pressure sensor package enables portable applications
TE Connectivity (TE) has developed a minimal footprint SMI SO-10 pressure sensor package with vertical port, which is now in full production. Inside the housing, a MEMS pressure sensor, based on TE’s proprietary silicon technology platform, and an advanced signal-conditioning IC are combined to provide a fully pressure calibrated and temperature compensated output. Covering gauge […]
Combined displacement and inclination sensor saves cost, installation space
In many applications, both displacement and inclination must be determined for ultimate functionality. Usually two different sensors need two be applied to capture both parameters, even if the variables need to be measured at the same spot of the machine. In such cases, a combined measurement of the variables in one sensor saves costs, installation […]
Can a sensor detect COVID-19 in wastewater?
Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) that extracts data from urine and feces transported through sewers has the potential for communities to rapidly screen, quarantine and prevent the spread of COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. As a result, many researchers are investigating its effectiveness for COVID-19 testing and to obtain information on health, disease and pathogens as well […]
Matrox imaging lasers in with launch of 3D profile sensors
Matrox Imaging has announced the launch of the Matrox AltiZ, a series of integrated high-fidelity 3D profile sensors featuring a dual-camera single-laser design. These fully integrated 3D profile sensors have an optimized design that lessens scanning gaps. Simultaneous viewing of the laser line by the Matrox AltiZ’s two opposed optical sensors reduces optical occlusions — […]
Can a biosensor detect the COVID-19 virus in the environment?
Building on research for sensors to detect bacteria and viruses in the air, a team from Empa, ETH Zurich and Zurich University Hospital developed a biosensor to detect the new coronavirus (COVID-19). The sensor could be used measure the virus concentration in the air in real time in crowded locations such as train stations or […]
How can you ensure proper air quality levels in buildings?
In the building management industry, landlords and building managers are charged with the safety and comfort of the tenants within their apartment complexes or office space. Safety includes ensuring that proper air quality levels are maintained. One of the ways to do this is by preventing a silent offender of public safety issues, carbon dioxide […]
How can we sense the coronavirus?
Researchers at Northwestern University and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab in Chicago asked themselves that question. Their answer is a wearable wireless sensor similar to a Band-Aid strip. The device mounts to the throat and detects breathing and coughing and a set of algorithms provide the analysis. Similar to sensors designed to monitor speech and swallowing in […]
