Prof. Ramaswamy Nagarajan from the department of plastics engineering at UMass Lowell has developed a new type of strain sensor suitable for wirelessly monitoring the mechanical deformation in tension ...

Out of curiosity, I bought a strain gauge sensor module after it appeared on sale. This write-up is fuzzy, since I decided to write based on a quick inspection of it. Have fun reading my little post ...

Wearable, flexible strain sensors unobtrusively monitor tiny vibrations of human skin in real time and with great accuracy, thanks to innovative fabrication techniques using composite materials. High ...

The development of bioinspired electronic skin plays a pivotal role in enhancing robotic environmental perception and ...

A research team has developed a new range of strain sensors that are 10 times more sensitive when measuring minute movements. These sensors are ultra-thin, battery-free and can transmit data ...

A new face-worn strain sensor could help, as it's able to "read" the wearer's silently mouthed words. Developed at China's Tsinghua University, the flexible, stretchable sensor takes the form of a ...

According to the researchers, there's usually a trade-off with such devices, in that their fragility increases along with their sensitivity. This highly-sensitive strain sensor, however, can ...

The FS62 – Athermal Strain Sensor is a Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) based sensor with an innovative proprietary design that ensures athermal operation of the strain gauge by cancelling the intrinsic ...

The modern automobile is getting pretty clever when it comes to stopping. Far from Fred Flintstone digging his heels into the ground beneath his rock car, today's braking systems benefit from ...
