A major challenge in self-powered wearable sensors for health care monitoring is distinguishing different signals when they occur at the same time. Researchers addressed this issue by uncovering a new ...

Laser diodes are semiconductors that generate light and amplify it using repeated reflection or "optical feedback." Once the ...

IDEC Corporation is expanding its already extensive photoelectric (PE) sensor portfolio with the new SA1N series of ...

Qubits—the fundamental units of quantum information—drive entire tech sectors. Among them, superconducting qubits could be ...

E-Photonics will leverage Lumotive’s breakthrough Light Control Metasurface (LCM ™) technology to develop and manufacture next-generation 3D sensing solutions for robotics, drones, and smart ...

The prototype camera uses optics for computing, reducing power consumption and enabling the camera to identify objects at the speed of light. Image: Ilya Chugunov, Princeton University Join Imaging ...

Fiber optic temperature sensors for direct winding temperature measurement in transformers are based on light absorption and transmission of light by a semiconductor (GaAs). The effects of temperature ...

Abstract: We report a solder-reflow-compatible thermoplastic material that can be deployed in co-packaged optical assemblies with no dimensional change of the material up to 269 °C. We fabricated a ...

But you need to buy additional hardware like motion sensors to make this “magic” happen. A new ambient sensing technology called Sensify could make this easier by turning your light bulbs into ...

The sensor could also enhance the performance of fiber optic communications, where detecting faint light signals accurately is crucial for transmitting data over long distances. The researchers also ...
