Asthma monitoring on the Web
An inexpensive web-enabled device for measuring lung function in patients with asthma and other disorders is being developed by researchers at Texas Instruments, in Bangalore, India, and co-workers. Writing in the International Journal of Biomedical Engineering and Technology, the team explains how the devise could allow physicians to monitor... view more... (2008-08-25)
Detecting substances with swinging mirrors
As we know from the familiar sight of a rainbow, a spectrum always has a specific width between violet and red. As the spectrum fans out, in chemical analysis the light or radiation intensity must be measured at various points. One means to achieve this is by using a turning diffraction grid that works like a prism. The spectrum is then... view more... (2003-05-22)

A new solar-powered underwater robot technology developed for undersea observation and water monitoring will be showcased at a Sept. 16 workshop on leading-edge robotics to be held at the National Science Foundation (NSF) in Arlington, Va. view more (2005-09-07)
Report from the Nanoforum online survey on the European Strategy for Nanotechnology published today
Between August and October 2004 Nanoforum hosted an online survey, in cooperation with the European Commission, to determine the community's attitude towards all aspects of nanoscience and nanotechnology (N&N) development. view more (2004-12-17)
Foldable and stretchable, silicon circuits conform to many shapes
Scientists have developed a new form of stretchable silicon integrated circuit that can wrap around complex shapes such as spheres, body parts and aircraft wings, and can operate during stretching, compressing, folding and other types of extreme mechanical deformations, without a reduction in electrical performance. view more (2008-03-28)
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...

Catching the lightwave: Nano-mechanical sensors 'wired' by photonics
As researchers push towards detection of single molecules, single electron spins and the smallest amounts of mass and movement, Yale researchers have demonstrated silicon-based nanocantilevers, smaller than the wavelength of light, that operate on photonic principles eliminating the need for electric transducers and expensive laser setups. view more (2009-04-27)
New cell-based sensors sniff out danger like bloodhounds
A small, unmanned vehicle makes its way down the road ahead of a military convoy. Suddenly it stops and relays a warning to the convoy commander. The presence of a deadly improvised explosive device, or IED, has been detected by sophisticated new sensor technology incorporating living olfactory cells on microchips mounted on the unmanned vehicle.... view more...
