NRL partners with industry to develop compact biosensor for wide-ranging applications
Scientists at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) are partnering with industry to develop a sensor system for biomolecules that could make a significant contribution to a variety of fields such as healthcare, veterinary diagnostics, food safety, environmental testing, and national security. view more (2009-02-04)
Nanoscale blasting adjusts resistance in magnetic sensors
A new process for adjusting the resistance of semiconductor devices by carpeting a small area of the device with tiny pits, like a yard dug up by demented terriers, may be the key to a new class of magnetic sensors, enabling new, ultra-dense data storage devices. view more (2007-08-17)
A card-swipe for medical tests
University of Utah scientists successfully created a sensitive prototype device that could test for dozens or even hundreds of diseases simultaneously by acting like a credit card-swipe machine to scan a card loaded with microscopic blood, saliva or urine samples. view more (2008-10-30)
Next Generation pH Measurement Removes the Need for Calibration
The measurement of pH is one of the most common analytical measurements used the world over in applications from process control in the food industry, to research in the pharmaceutical industry, through to effluent monitoring in the environmental sector. In 2002, the total pH measurement instrumentation market, including replacement sensors... view more... (2004-11-12)

Smart jail cells could predict and prevent inmate violence
Holding cells fitted with specially-adapted sensors could provide early warnings if inmates become agitated or have a medical emergency, reports Marina Murphy in Chemistry & Industry magazine. view more (2005-05-12)
Military imagery analysis assistant
Friend or enemy - what kind of tank or ship can be seen in aerial or satellite photo? The RecceMan identification assistant, which helps recognize the most diverse objects quickly and accurately, is the first interactive image recognition system produced for the German army. view more (2001-12-03)
Low-cost magnetic field sensors
People who can claim possession of the latest generation of outdoor wristwatch may rightly assume that the conventional compass with its magnetic needle has served its time. Thanks to modern, space-saving chip technology, new features are constantly being integrated: altimeters, cameras, or even electronic compasses can be conveniently worn on the... view more...

TU Delft puts research ‘technology with senses’ in the spotlight
TU Delft puts research ‘technology with senses’ in the spotlight In the field of intelligent sensors, TU Delft wants to call in the help of the business world and subsidy providers. For this reason, the university is founding the “Delft Institute for Intelligent Sensor MicroSystems” (DISens). Its aim is the research into... view more... (2001-06-01)
Non Fire Yet But The Sensors Snap Into Action
Russian researchers offer a fundamentally new approach to the development of gas sensors for fire-prevention detecting devices. In contrast to already known ones, these sensors allow to detect unerringly fire occurrence at its earliest stage. However, this is not a single advantage of the innovation or a sole field of application. view more (2004-12-06)
Enabling graphene-based technology via chemical functionalization
Graphene is an atomically thin sheet of carbon that has attracted significant attention due to its potential use in high-performance electronics, sensors and alternative energy devices such as solar cells. view more (2009-05-18)
Pressure relief for jet engines - Photon02
The aerodynamics inside jet engines are not completely understood due to the unpredictable nature of the air flowing through the turbine. However, a research team led by Dr Jim Barton from Heriot-Watt University, has developed tiny fibre optic pressure sensors that can for the first time be used inside jet engine test rigs. These sensors should... view more... (2002-08-28)
Color sensors for better vision
The car of the future will have lots of smart assistants onboard - helping to park the car, recognize traffic signs and to warn the driver of blind spot hazards. view more (2009-10-06)
The man from Southampton-he says yes!
23 October 1998 How do farmers know when their tomatoes are perfect and just right for picking? Southampton researchers have harnessed the same technology used to print T-shirts to develop a simple, robust device that can be used in the field to indicate when fruit is ripe. John Atkinson, head of the University of Southampton's Thick Film Unit... view more... (1998-11-17)
New wireless sensor network keeps tabs on the environment
Research in the University of Alberta's Faculty of Science may soon be able to answer that question. The departments of computing science and earth and atmospheric science have been working together to create a Wireless Sensor Network that allows for the clandestine data collection of environmental factors in remote locations and its monitoring... view more...

Varnish measures pressure and vibrations
Despite the use of computer simulation, wind tunnel testing is still required to measure pressure changes and airflow speeds on the surfaces of new aircraft and automobile prototypes. Such testing is now done less with smoke visualization and threads but more frequently with high-tech sensors which have the least influence on air flows. Film... view more... (2003-02-20)
EU Funding Helps Improve The Detection of Pesticides in the Environment
The production of more advanced sensors to improve the detection of pesticides in water and other environmental samples has been helped by a grant of almost 1.23 million euro from the EU's Framework Programme. view more (2005-04-29)
