Over the past decades, physicists and quantum engineers introduced a wide range of systems that perform desired functions leveraging quantum mechanical effects. These include so-called quantum sensors ...

Just about every “getting started with microcontrollers” kit, Arduino or otherwise, includes an ultrasonic distance sensor module. Given the power of microcontrollers these days, it was only a matter ...

Raspberry Pi launched a follow-up to its Camera Module 3 with the Camera Module 3 Sensor Assembly. Now, Raspberry Pi users can put the camera sensors into their own custom form factors. The move ...

More efficient, smaller, and lighter traction inverters for EVs can be created by integrating current sensors directly into SiC-based power modules. Silicon Austria Labs (SAL), a power semiconductor ...

Designing robots requires precision and flexibility. When creating a humanoid robot system, there are mechanical and electrical considerations that you need to understand before beginning the actual ...

HomeKit has changed how I interact with many of the rooms in my house. While lighting and cameras tend to have the spotlight for most people as they can easily see the impact, environment monitoring ...

The high-sensitivity image sensor modules are versatile. Imaging applications include real- time non-destructive inspection techniques such as food screening, plastic sorting, semiconductor inspection ...

Scientists in China placed a 0.5 mm thick aluminum foil between the solar cell and the EVA, and between the EVA and the glass layer. The two experimental modules were compared to a reference module ...

Temperature sensors are an important yet often overlooked part of a HomeKit setup. Even working as a passive tracking device, I want to add them to every room to understand more about what’s happening ...
