The new groundbraking graphene sensor (Credit: Nanyang Technological University) Engineers from Singapore have created a new type of camera sensor made from graphene that is said to be 1,000 times more sensitive to light than current imaging sensors. Researchers from ...

The tiny prototype lab – to be implamented under the skin Swiss researchers developed a tiny portable personal blood testing laboratory that can be inserted under the skin and can provide immediate analysis of substances in the body and transmit ...

The new super sensative CMOS sensor by Canon A prototype camera which uses the new sensor Canon announced today that it successfully developed a super high-sensitivity full-frame CMOS sensor developed exclusively for video recording. The new Full HD sensor can ...

FIT medical sensing shirt (Credit: Maxim Integrated) California based company Maxim Integrated recently announced a model for a vital signs monitoring shirt. The T-shirt is able to measures 3-lead ECG, body temperature, and motion and report record this information wirelessly ...

The Massachusetts based Company Affectiva developed a special watch-like sensor which measures emotional arousal via skin conductance that grows higher during states such as excitement, attention or anxiety and lower during states such as boredom or relaxation. Q-Sensor There are ...

Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have developed a new approach for “electronic noses.” The new noses are comprised of 16 microheater elements and eight types of sensors with a pattern-recognition module that mimics the way ...

Scientists from the University of Oklahoma, led by Dr. Patrick McCann, have created a new method for cancer diagnosis using an infra-red based sensor that could identify markers released from the lungs of cancer patients. This development may make diagnosis ...

Researchers at Rice University and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have recently been able to use carbon nanotubes to make the “blackest black” — the darkest material ever created, reflecting only 0.045 percent of all light shown on it. Schematic of a ...

Researchers from the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) have developed a sensor that will constantly monitor the air in the vicinity of asthma patients. Analysis of the data collected by the sensor will hopefully help scientists understand the causes of ...
