Scientists from renowned institutions in Germany have successfully created a microelectromechanical sensor inspired by the cochlea, a hollow, spiral-shaped bone found in the inner ear, TechXplore ...

Traditional sound sources and sound detectors are usually independent and discrete in the human hearing range. To minimize the device size and integrate it with wearable electronics, there is an ...

Researchers are developing a new type of sensor that reacts to certain sound waves, causing it to vibrate. The sensor is a metamaterial that acquires its special properties through the structuring of ...

Helium is inert, which makes it useful in a lot of different industries. But helium’s colorless and odorless non-reactivity also means traditional gas sensing methods don’t work. Specialized detectors ...

The brilliant metallic blue wings of Morpho butterflies dazzle the eye. Branched nanostructures on the wings scatter light in complex ways to produce this characteristic iridescent hue. By harnessing ...

Forward-looking: Researchers at the Beijing Institute of Technology have developed a microphone that doesn't detect air vibrations like traditional models. Instead, it captures light reflected from ...

Only a handful of brands have started offering dedicated sensors like this ...

Eufy has unveiled three new smart home sensors in quick succession, including a long-life motion sensor, a dedicated glass ...
