Sensor fusion has been around for many years and is ubiquitous in mobile device designs. Sensor fusion “fuses” data from different types of sensors to improve measurement accuracy, such as for motion ...

Presenters at MD&M West highlight the advantages of IO-Link, a manufacturer-independent digital communication protocol/interface, while introducing a software solution. Baumer Sensor Suite (BSS) is a ...

More often than not, an IoT master device uses the SPI (serial peripheral interface) and I 2 C (inter-integrated circuit) protocols to exchange data with EEPROMs or sensors that are operating in slave ...

An overwhelming majority of handheld devices these days have ambient light sensors built into them. A large percentage of TVs and monitors do, too, and that proportion is growing. The sensors allow ...

Over the past decades, physicists and quantum engineers introduced a wide range of systems that perform desired functions leveraging quantum mechanical effects. These include so-called quantum sensors ...

Brain-computer interfaces are typically unwieldy, which makes using them on the move a non-starter. A new neural interface small enough to be attached between the user’s hair follicles keeps working ...
