Sweat, when monitored, reveals valuable information about human health. Wearable sensors developed to monitor glucose levels have thus far been insufficient—until now. Penn State researchers created a novel wearable patch that may be up to…

While it may not be common knowledge, ASICs have transformed many electronics products. Even a mid-range vehicle manufactured some years ago will feature several specialized ASICs for tire pressure monitoring, engine monitoring, and gas…

The move to EVs creates large amounts of e-waste and environmentally damaging mining. The Lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese shortages could slow the EV transition and rapidly expand mining activities. There’s growing interest in…

BlackBerry is launching a series of BlackBerry Radar devices – H2M IS- to aid hazardous materials carriers. Backed by an Intrinsically Safe certification designation, the asset the tracking solution targets transportation and logistics…

Researchers at Duke University and Purdue University managed the arrangement of multiple inorganic and organic layers in crystals with a novel technique, controlling energy levels of electrons and holes within perovskites. The tuning…

In a world shaped by technological advancements and scientific discoveries, misconceptions about electrical phenomena persist, perpetuated by common beliefs that often lack accuracy. These myths, ranging from the properties of gold as a…

A research team at the Advanced Science Research Center at the CUNY Graduate Center (CUNY ASRC) has shown that it is possible to manipulate photons into colliding, causing them to interact in new ways as they cross paths.  The…

In an era of rapid technological advancement, it's no surprise that the construction industry is embracing automation in a big way. Drones and robots, once relegated to the realm of science fiction, are now playing pivotal roles in shaping…

High-temperature flames are used to create a wide variety of materials – but once you start a fire, it's not always easy to control how it interacts with the process. Researchers have now developed a technique that utilizes a molecule-thin…

Macquarie University engineers invented a new technique to make the manufacture of nanosensors less carbon-intensive, much cheaper, more efficient, and more versatile. Treating each sensor with a single drop of ethanol replaces…
