Learn how laser, eddy and other displacement sensors work and how they plug into IIoT PdM systems. They’re game changers on ...

Optical fibre cables have traditionally been used for high-speed telecommunications. But they have another valuable use in industry — as continuous sensors. Unlike ‘point sensors’, which measure data ...

Optical sensors are a broad class of device for detecting light intensity. This can be just a simple component for notifying when ambient light levels rise above or fall below a prescribed level, or a ...

Abstract: In this paper, a composite anti-disturbance control method is proposed for electromechanical fin actuators with deflection angle constraints and multiple disturbances. Firstly, a ...

Abstract: Dielectric elastomer-driven tunable prisms are novel liquid optical devices that enable two degree-of-freedom beam deflection. However, their periodic dynamic response exhibits hysteresis, ...

Researchers unveiled SOLen, a 3D printed soft optical sensor that guides light with an internal lens for mechanosensing. The work is one of many that attempt to embed sensing directly into structures ...

Doubled battery life, a 49g chassis, and more reliable optical scrolling highlight an impressive spec sheet. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s ...
