It’s always interesting to see how scientists and engineers have exploited—in the positive sense of the word—somewhat obscure, fundamental physics principles to create innovative sensors. For example, ...

Another sensor design is based on the “micro-bending” effect. “Fiber optics operate on total internal reflection – so when the fiber is bent, some of the light leaks out,” Chuang said. “We can ...

The FOP-F125 pressure sensor is the result of close collaboration with LEOSS, a Slovenian research group from the University of Maribor who has been working with FISO for the last three years. This ...

A fiber pressure sensor boasts a measurement limit that cripples most optical sensors. A new type of optical pressure sensor that is able to operate in extreme conditions has been developed by ...

Fiber-optic sensors work well in tight spots and in applications with a high degree of electrical noise, but care must be taken when specifying these critical components. Sensing part presence in ...

For the first time, researchers have fabricated sensing elements known as fiber Bragg gratings inside optical fibers designed to dissolve completely inside the body. For the first time, researchers ...

Oil sands project to use sensors in 21 wells. QUEBEC CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Opsens Inc. (“Opsens”) (TSXV: OPS) is pleased to announce that it has received its second largest order to instrument 21 ...

WASHINGTON -- For the first time, researchers have fabricated sensing elements known as fiber Bragg gratings inside optical fibers designed to dissolve completely inside the body. The bioresorbable ...
