Using a specialized MRI sensor, engineers have shown that they can detect light deep within tissues such as the brain. Using a specialized MRI sensor, MIT researchers have shown that they can detect ...

At the heart of every camera is a sensor, whether that sensor is a collection of light-detecting pixels or a strip of 35-millimeter film. But what happens when you want to take a picture of something ...

Modern smartphones are packed with a wide range of sensors, and their magnetometer can successfully identify certain kinds of ...

Using a specialized MRI sensor, MIT researchers have shown that they can detect light deep within tissues such as the brain. Imaging light in deep tissues is extremely difficult because as light ...

Apple is continuing to refine its work on light sensors that could work through a display, likely for use in a future version of Face ID or Touch ID on an iPhone. In a patent application published ...

I want to add an analog ambient light detector to one of my electronics projects. To do that, I picked the TEMT6000 ambient light sensor. TEMT6000 is a silicon NPN epitaxial planar phototransistor in ...

Scientists have developed a new kind of wearable sensor that can detect signs of eye disease—without drawing blood or using expensive lab equipment. Instead, it’s a soft, non-invasive patch placed ...

Scientists have developed a fully transparent skin sensor that accurately measures UV radiation, detecting light and converting it to electrical signals. So when the Sun's rays reach damaging levels, ...
