Chen et al. have developed haptic memory arrays which can detect and retain external pressure distribution.
Results for "sensors"
Wearable Strain Sensors via 3D Printing
A multiple core–shell 3D printing method has been developed to fabricate soft, stretchable, fibre-based, capacitive strain sensors. The sensors can be readily integrated into conventional clothing and used in gait monitoring.
MIP sensors for direct optical detection
Researchers from Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Greece, and Singapore jointly developed a new type of MIP-based material for optical sensors.
Light sensors for artificial limbs
Researchers shine light into muscle to detect instructions for artificial limbs.
Breakthrough in whispering gallery mode sensors
Researchers have demonstrated free-space laser excitation of whispering gallery modes in vertically suspended oil droplets, recording Q-factors of over 105.
Si-doped graphene sensors developed
The Terrones group at The Pennsylvania State University in the US has reported a controlled technique able to dope graphene with silicon atoms.
Upconversion nanoparticles as biosensors
A team in Hong Kong has developed a new method for detecting the lethal bird flu virus quickly, using a class of materials called upconversion nanoparticles.
DNAzyme controlled aggregation of gold nanoparticles for DNA sensors and aptasensors
Researchers have developed a DNA biosensor system by controlling the aggregation of AuNPs using horseradish-peroxidase-mimicking DNAzyme.
Tissue Implantable Insulin Sensors
A team from MIT explores the dynamics and operation of a hypothetical insulin sensor using a model for glucose, insulin and glucagon circulating in the body.
