Recreating the bead-like structure of seal whiskers grants scientists insight into new underwater technologies.
A uniquely sensitive, stretchable pressure sensor for prosthetics, soft robotics, and human-machine interfaces.
With the help of machine learning, a skin-like sensor internalizes different stimuli, allowing it to read and interpret hand movement.
A team led by Wubin Bai developed a novel wearable sensor patch that provides a safe, real-time, less invasive and low-cost way to track a patient’s recovery.
A new smart pillowcase not only tracks sleep but is powered by head movement, providing a more accurate means of monitoring sleep cycles.
The new sensors reliably and uniformly detected molecular signals, and their performance remained intact when tested again after two and a half months.
Wearable devices for health monitoring don’t have to be limited to just smart watches and fitness trackers.
A new blood sensor utilizes miniaturized channels to monitor for accidental bleeding during colonoscopies.
An innovative chemical sensor design could make environmental monitoring in the field more efficient and effective.
Researchers working to understand climate change, find inspiration in the most unlikely of places.
