Temperature measurement has long been vital to most industrial and manufacturing operations. It has taken on new importance in the era of smart buildings and homes, where automation of such functions ...

Murata is about to commence mass production of a range of surface-mounted NTC temperature sensors that are packaged on a flexible printed circuit (FPC) film. With an FPC thickness of approximately 100 ...

Wearable electronics like fitness trackers and medical monitors are getting more powerful, but nonetheless, their tiny components generate heat that can’t easily escape through the soft, rubbery ...

Technologies such as load cells are too bulky or obtrusive to measure loads in some tight spaces; that’s where thin, flexible force sensors come into play. However, flexible force-sensing technology ...

Engineers have developed a new method of measuring temperature through the interaction of a soft and flexible ‘smart skin’ sensor with electromagnetic waves. The sensor developed by the team from the ...

Accurate measurement using sensor elements requires precise and local measurement of the element’s temperature for correction and compensation across a wide operating range. Thus, an integral part of ...

Scientists have developed a flexible and transparent smartphone fingerprint scanner that can even measure your temperature and pressure to make sure that the fingerprint placed on the scanner is ...

A lightweight sensor has been developed that responds to tiny changes in human temperature simply by resting on the skin. It is made from graphite and a polymer and responds to minute fluctuations ...
