At the heart of every camera is a sensor, whether that sensor is a collection of light-detecting pixels or a strip of ...

Researchers have developed a precision magnetometer based on a special material that changes optical properties in response ...

New research reveals how cryptochromes, magnetite, and electromagnetic induction help animals detect magnetic cues and find ...

A NIMS research team has developed a new experimental method capable of rapidly evaluating numerous material compositions by measuring anomalous Hall resistivity 30 times faster than conventional ...

Designed by Nova Radio Labs in the US, the Novaduino Environmental Sensor Kit is an Arduino-programmable air quality and weather monitoring solution built around the company’s own Novaduino Display ...

Quantum devices that measure Earth's magnetic fields could help replace GPS—if researchers can figure out how to tell when such devices are working well, or even at all. A Pentagon contract suggests ...

A major dip in the Earth’s magnetic field over the South Atlantic has been puzzling scientists for over a century. An international team of researchers analyzed data collected by the European Space ...

A weak spot in the Earth's magnetic field is growing over the South Atlantic Ocean, according to more than a decade's worth of satellite data collected by scientists. The magnetic field surrounding ...

Two new omnipolar sensors employ tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) technology to offer an alternative to Hall-effect devices by providing superior thermal stability, wide supply voltage compatibility, ...

AS5600 is a library for an AS5600 / AS5600L based magnetic rotation meter. More exact, it measures the angle (rotation w.r.t. reference) and not RPM. Multiple angle measurements allows one to ...

Imagine navigating a virtual reality with contact lenses or operating your smartphone under water: This and more could soon be a reality thanks to innovative e-skins. A research team has developed an ...
