A sensing device tailored for mass production of highly sensitive and stable nerve-gas detectors has been developed by a research group led by a mechanical engineer at The University of Texas at ...

A new luminescent sensor can detect terbium, a valuable rare earth element used in smart phone displays, from complex environmental samples like acid mine waste. A new luminescent sensor can detect ...

Twist, bend and stretch The new stretchable sensor can detect even minor changes in strain with greater range of motion than previous technologies. The patterned cuts enable large deformation without ...

Sense elements are used to convert physical quantities of interest into electrical signals. For example, a Wheatstone bridge can be used to convert pressure into electrical output. Many sense elements ...
