How to Measure Nothing Better

Cold atoms could also potentially measure much lower vacuum pressures than ion gauges can. The current lowest pressure they’ve reliably measured is around 10 -9 Pa, and NIST scientists are working on ...
A large cloud of tiny fragments revolves around Earth following satellite explosions, rocket stage malfunctions, and anti-satellite missile testing. These fragments—some as small as grains of ...
Imagine a touch sensor so thin and flexible it can feel not only where you press but also how hard. Scientists in Japan have just developed such a device, and it could transform everything from ...
The company's force sensor products applicable to the fields of humanoid and collaborative robots mainly include pressure sensors, tension and compression sensors, torque sensors, and six-dimensional ...
Domestic researchers have devised a wireless wearable sensor to measure in real time the amount of breast milk a baby consumes while breastfeeding. This is expected to greatly help manage the ...
Charcroft Electronics Ltd., – a specialist distributor and manufacturer of electronic components – has completed the acquisition of Sensor Techniques, a distributor of load cells and strain gauges ...
