Scientists have discovered a method that paves the way for a new generation of magnetic sensors. Their procedure can be used to greatly extend the functionality of such sensors, which is limited when ...

The physiological levels of molecular biomarkers can be regarded as time-varying continuous signals. However, clinicians seldom take advantage of this temporal information in making diagnostic and ...

Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) have made a significant advance in magnetic field measurement.

Smarter measurement supports more efficient, safer and more sustainable operations, extending service life and enhancing uptime, whatever the industry sector. Behind the scenes, it is also helping to ...

The KMA36 digital position sensor by Measurement Specialties measures precise rotational and incremental measurement of magnetic field fluctuations.Employing anisotropic magneto resistive (AMR) ...

The types of magnetic sensors that are currently available. How the magnetic sensors work. Applications for the different magnetic sensors. Position sensors enable a variety of functions and controls ...

Littelfuse, Inc. has launched two next-generation omnipolar magnetic switches, the LF21173TMR and LF21177TMR. These devices combine TMR and CMOS technologies in a compact LGA4 package, providing ultra ...

An atom-based magnetic sensor the size of a sugar cube has successfully measured human brain activity, a milestone that could ultimately lead to advancing our understanding of a wide range of ...

Figure 1a shows a slotted optical switch. An LED is mounted in a plastic housing, facing a phototransistor, but separated by a gap. If something moves into the gap, it blocks the light path between ...

Because optical encoders are functionally similar, “resolution” is often used as a main characteristic for magnetic encoders, a device providing the angle of a magnet attached to a mechanical shaft ...

NIST sensor developed by German scientists measures the magnetic activity in human brain. NIST sensor measures alpha waves in the brain associated with a person opening and closing their eyes as well ...
