Disposable sensor uses DNA to detect hazardous uranium ions
Researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have developed a simple, disposable sensor for detecting hazardous uranium ions, with sensitivity that rivals the performance of much more sophisticated laboratory instruments. view more (2007-02-15)
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)
UC San Diego Scientists Develop Sensor for Homemade Bombs
A team of chemists and physicists at the University of California, San Diego has developed a tiny, inexpensive sensor chip capable of detecting trace amounts of hydrogen peroxide, a chemical used in the most common form of homemade explosives. view more (2008-03-19)
New non-invasive sensor can detect brainwaves remotely
Scientists have developed a remarkable sensor that can record brainwaves without the need for electrodes to be inserted into the brain or even for them to be placed on the scalp. Conventional electroencephalograms (EEGs) monitor electrical activity in the brain with electrodes placed either on the scalp (involving hair removal and skin abrasion)... view more... (2002-10-24)
I'm forever imploding bubbles
The National Physical Laboratory (NPL) has developed the first sensor capable of measuring localized ultrasonic cavitation - the implosion of bubbles in a liquid when a high frequency sound wave is applied. view more (2009-04-07)
Silicon motion sensor in line for UK's biggest engineering prize
The inventors of a tiny gyroscope that is cheap and tough enough to be used routinely in cars now have a 1 in 4 chance of winning the UK's biggest engineering prize, the £50,000 Royal Academy of Engineering MacRobert Award for innovation. Tonight, 24 June 1999, the Academy will announce a team from British Aerospace Systems and Equipment... view more... (1999-06-24)
New Research Seeks to Enhance Quality and Security of Wireless Telemedicine
A team of researchers led by Fei Hu, assistant professor of computer engineering at Rochester Institute of Technology, is working to advance the integration of radio frequency identification technology, also known as RFID, into cardiac sensor networks, a new wireless technology for telemedicine delivery. view more (2007-09-18)
A better test to detect DNA for diagnosing diease, investigating crimes
Researchers in Singapore are reporting development of a new electronic sensor that shows promise as a faster, less expensive, and more practical alternative than tests now used to detect DNA. view more (2009-08-27)
Leading-edge body sensor could help produce sporting champions
A revolutionary unobtrusive sensor that collects and immediately transmits data from the human body could boost British sporting success in future. view more (2007-09-13)
Soft materials buckle up for measurement
Buckling under pressure can be a good thing, say materials scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2006-06-28)
New Transplant Organ Sensor Technology
Scientists at the University of Ulster have unveiled a monitoring system that can ensure transplant organs arrive in pristine condition for the life-saving surgery. They have developed tiny sensors which are inserted in the organs, and which monitor if there has been any deterioration in the organs' condition since being removed from the donor.... view more...

A&T professor has technology to monitor bridge safety
North Carolina A&T State University has developed a technology that could have possibly prevented the bridge collapse in Minneapolis, Minnesota. view more (2007-08-06)
Tiny endoscopes bring medical costs down
Viewing actual images of patients' internal organs is more and more common in medical procedures. However, in many cases the treatment can be painful or uncomfortable, and high sterilisation costs can limit the procedure's use. IVP's prototypes aim to overcome such challenges. view more (2005-04-29)
MIT's 'electronic nose' could detect hazards
A tiny "electronic nose" that MIT researchers have engineered with a novel inkjet printing method could be used to detect hazards including carbon monoxide, harmful industrial solvents and explosives. view more (2007-11-12)
Breath or Urine Analysis May Detect Cancer, Diabetes
A future sensor may take away a patient's breath while simultaneously determining whether the patient has breast cancer, lung cancer, diabetes or asthma. A University of Missouri researcher is developing a device that will analyze breath or urine samples for volatile markers inside the body that indicate disease. view more (2009-03-11)
ANALYTICA 2004: Portable Laboratory for Serial Control of Oil
Together with WearCheck GmbH (Brannenburg), the Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz (IMM GmbH) has developed the colour measuring instrument WaveCheck300. WaveCheck300 is the first portable analysis device for the quality control of machine oil. It measures colorimetrically with a miniaturised spectral sensor. A special software analyzes the... view more... (2004-05-10)
MIT: Preventing forest fires with tree power
MIT researchers and colleagues are working to find out whether energy from trees can power a network of sensors to prevent spreading forest fires. view more (2008-09-22)
Caltech bioengineers develop 'microscope on a chip'
Researchers at the California Institute of Technology have turned science fiction into reality with their development of a super-compact high-resolution microscope, small enough to fit on a finger tip. view more (2008-07-29)
Remote heartbeat monitor will outperform current technology
Doctors may be able to monitor a patient`s heartbeat from a distance by using a radical new sensor that is currently being developed at the University of Sussex in Brighton. view more (2002-01-29)
