Sensors used to monitor extreme environments need to provide reliable measurements despite high temperatures and harsh conditions. Now, researchers have developed a piezoelectric sensor that works at ...

Flexible piezoelectric sensors are essential to monitor the motions of both humans and humanoid robots. However, existing designs are either are costly or have limited sensitivity. In a recent study, ...

Look around for heart rate sensors that interface easily to microcontrollers, and you’ll come up with a few projects that use LEDs and other microcontrollers to do the dirty work of filtering out ...

A KAIST research team led by Professor Keon Jae Lee from the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and the College of Medicine of the Catholic University of Korea has developed a highly ...

An international research group has engineered a novel high-strength flexible device by combining piezoelectric composites with unidirectional carbon fiber. The new device transforms kinetic energy ...

For example, a 2-kN force properly applied to a cubic-centimetersized quartz crystal produces over 12.5 kV. Voltage created by an applied stress is called piezoelectricity. Unlike strain gages that ...

NanoHive is exploring the advancement of successful proof-of-concept research to potentially develop bone stimulating and remote monitoring/data collection sensor technology housed in the company's ...
